So when people ask you what’s most valuable to you, what are you going to say? You’re going to conjure up something sensitive and sentimental right?! Like for instance, “Hey Mr. or Mrs. So-and-so I feel that my family; friends; love; honesty; or education is most valuable to me!” Then the whole class is probably going to be like “AWEE,” all in unison and then you’re going to feel warm and fuzzy inside because you repeated another common value in life. Don’t get me wrong, nothing’s wrong with any of those answers and those are good and all….but me personally I need some flavor!
If you ask me what do I value most in life you’re going to be shocked and probably look at me cross eyed. You know what? I’ll save you the trouble asking me…. I value having fun and enjoying life!
Some people don’t get a chance to enjoy any of their lives. Look around kids are stepping up and acting like adults, becoming parents all extra early, trying to be grown, and buckle down to their responsibilities. Well that’s nice but, we’re what 15 and 16 years old? We shouldn’t be trying to concentrate on how we’re going to pay the cable bill, at least not yet. We should be having fun which means, yes we make mistakes while picking up the lesson at the end. I’m always up for a good time. Invite me to go skating, the movie theatre, the bowling alley, or even to a football game; I’ll turn the simplest event into a fun loving activity for everybody! I believe in having fun because well….we have plenty of time for the seriousness and the poker faces later in life. I’m not talking drastic changes like go home and tell your mom’s that you decided you’re not babysitting your little brother Jay Jay or Harold because you’re going skating. You may get grounded or yelled at! I can’t help you there sorry!
Life is long yet short. I don’t know about anyone else but, I don’t want to grow up and then be mad that I never got to have any fun. I want to be able to make mistakes, get a couple laughs, enjoy being carefree, and just have fun. No one’s getting any younger so I’m running out of time. Having fun de-stresses me, kind of like having weekends to get breaks from school. When I’m feeling sad, I might call up some friends and go skating. If homework has been nerve racking then I might hit up a football game. No matter the feeling or how rough it gets I know that I can always be relieved… if I just go have fun!
