A person's identity is in the hands of the beholder. We have the power to choose what we want to share and what we don't want to share. For those who know the truth about us, they know we can't be defined in a single moment. In a single photo. However, for those who don't we decide what we show to others and how we want them to judge us. Whether we decide to reveal an appropriate picture or not ultimately the decision is ours.
Now let's not forget the never ending whirlwind of technology. These
days you can't go anywhere without seeing someone with a device in their hand. People
seem to be plugged in 24/7, and they don't realize that they are
ignoring everything around them. People are loosing
everything from friends, communication, the outside world, and even
themselves. I mean look at my picture I have an iPhone, 4 iPods and a
mac-book. You could say I'm a little apple crazy. But the truth is I'm
one of those plugged in freaks. I never leave my house with out my
headphones. I'm not afraid to say that I'm one of those people missing
out on nature, and friends and everything else on my world because I am. Technology
has gotten so freakishly advanced these days that we don't need people to have a
face-to-face conversations anymore. We can simply push a button and have a full on conversation with our cell phone. We as a society need to unplug for a moment and get back to society.
Success...everyone has their own ideas and perceptions of what it means. I believe that everyone will be successful in life. It just depends what point in life you are in and how you go about achieving it. One must see the bigger picture to be successful. Take my graduation picture. I thought that this would be amazing and was so happy I wouldn't have to go to high school anymore. What I didn't realize was that I was entering the real world. College and work were right around the corner. But I knew that I was successful in high school, so I could get through anything life threw my way. However, success isn't always about the best cars, money, and jobs. The bigger and better you are isn't always going to get you places. Sometimes happiness can lead you to success.
Being adventurous and happy in life, is definitely success to me. Anytime that I'm happy and having a good time, it makes me feel good about my self and successful. Take my snowboarding picture. Whenever, I'm out there on the slopes just me, my board, and some friends. It seems like we are the only ones up there. That feeling of I've conquered the world by landing a new trick. That right there, is pure success. The constant surrounding of love and support of friends and family with the things I love to do makes it all the better.
The risk and reward. We must risk things in life to make us happy.
Although, we might not get the most money, or the best jobs, we are
getting the best moments and memories out of it. I love animals, all types no matter what they are and alligators are probably one of my top favorites. So when I got the opportunity to get to hold one, I said "HELL YEAH". In order to have fun and success we must risk some things. For me, it was putting myself in the hands of an alligator. But it was all the more better, because in the end I checked something off my bucket list. We shouldn't have to be
bored and successful. We should go out there and be happy, take risks,
and be adventurous with our lives.
He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.
