What is your happiness?

I feel like often times, people mis-understand, mis-place, mis-take, or even confuse their happiness with success. Actually, i see how those two, Happiness&Success, go hand in hand with one another.

But what if you were stripped away of such things? Would you become nothing?

Is that what defines you? Success?

Our lives are built upon becoming sucessful. Why?

I just realized that there are many simplistic things we take for granted in our lives.

I personally find happiness in eating ice cream (I LOVE icecream). I find happiness when i run into an old friend and we sit to talk about the old times. I'm happy when I'm driving alone, singing my heart&soul out to the world. I'm overjoyed when my actions have a positive effect on other peoples' lives.

Success? What is success?

I personally wanted to go to a prestigious college so that I can further carry out my goal in life. Maybe God is trying to humble me. Trying to make me realize that I dont need the best things in life, in order to perform my best. Saving lives, traveling, enjoying what i see... All those things can happen anywhere.

Do my best in SMC, and if it takes me to greater heights then, that's where ill be. But for the meantime, I'm repioratizing my expectations and goals in life.
