We are born, then go to grade school; Then we go to High School, a lot of us go to college and have part-time jobs or full-time. After we graduate we work full-time; Where's the life in that? We work all the time (most people) and have hardly any spare time at all. I'm 18 and I see my elders doing this everyday, and thats not what I want. I'm getting ready to start college, but not looking forward to what comes after. I'm thinking about becoming a medical transcriptionist - work at home as my own boss making good money for easy work. But what if that doesn't work out? What If my goals don't come true x.x;? Don't taking me wrong, I'm a positive person, I know I have a bright future...but what if?

Life is what happens in those unforgettable "in between" moments. It is the little things that make everything else worthwhile; like seeing your spouses eyes sparkle, or feeling the breeze on your face and knowing you are alive. We all have a purpose in life, even if we aren't aware of what it is. Life is and always will be full of what if's, and it isn't about taking the easy road either. It is about feeling and finding and helping each other along the way. Stop what iffing and do your best at whatever you decide to do, that is the way to find true satisfaction.
