Maybe I'm silly, for not wanting everything.
For not wanting to make a lot of money For not wanting a job with long, tiresome hours Is it foolish that I want simplicity? Just enough to get by? I personally don't think so. I want happiness. I want to be happy with who I am And what I do And how I live. And if I can't be happy in working, Then what's the point? The money I make would be pointless if I wasn't enjoying what I was doing to earn it. But no I am silly For only wanting happiness. I should have more ambition than that, because obviously I was made for greater things After all, I have what most would consider a good head on my shoulders So why wouldn't I want some taxing job that pushed my brain? Because maybe Just maybe I don't want my life to be decided by if I have good grades Maybe I want to try something that's a bit out there Maybe I want to have fun with whatever I do It shouldn't come as that big of a surprise. My dreams in life all coincide with happiness. I try to smile as often as possible, and find beauty in everything So why wouldn't the same apply to my career path? I don't want or need a big house or a fancy car. Give me a small apartment with the bare minimum that I can afford And I'll be happy. Material things have such little value to me. It is the moments throughout my life that bring me happiness. And that is why I don't want to be a doctor. Or a scientist. Or someone who works with stocks. Or someone who runs a bank. Or manages a company. Or starts an empire. No, I want to be happy. Because at the end of the day When life fades out It is our memories that will remain, Not our possessions -- Maddie.
