Essay of Life

By: Amanda Sik

 

 

            The meaning of life is different for everyone. Some people have their own beliefs and others have theirs too. But everyone has a different prospective on life. The meaning of life to me basically means learning lessons and conquering your greatest fears. But to some their meaning of life is totally different. For Example the meaning to some people is God. Which also plays an important role in my life.

 

            The meaning of life to my mom consists of this, having her family safe and healthy and being healthy herself. I believe that the meaning of life is pretty much the same being happy and healthy, God and going to church, and having good friends that I can depend on. My mom and I have pretty much the same view on life when is comes down to it.

 

            To make my life better, I could go to church more often, spend more time with my friends and family. My mom could change her life by not working so much and spending more time with family and friends and relax for a change. I think that my mom and I could make our lives more meaningful by doing the little things that count for the most. One other thing that our family could do is spend more time together is going on trips so that my parents can relax and have fun with the whole family…or maybe just some alone time will make it better.

 

            Every person has a reason for having such a meaningful life, but my mom and I have pretty much the same view on life, whether it be God, church, family, or friends everyone is different or either the same.  This is what makes life important to my mom and I .
