One Million Tons

Pressure is something that can feel like a million tons or like a feather., there’s pressure in school, jobs, at home, and games. Pressure is something that is always with me. Get good grades, get into a good school, don’t mess up. Pressure that I get comes from everywhere, parents, friends, and teachers. Don’t lose, don’t look stupid, don’t be annoying. Pressure is something that can break you or build you, too much pressure and you fall apart like Legos, not enough pressure and you’ll never have the feeling of needing to do something. Its like a standing on a worn down bridge. You have to be at a perfect balance to not fall. If you put to much weight on to one side then it falls apart, but if you don’t put enough then you’ll never be able to cross. Be Perfect.

Life’s Purpose

 Everyone has a purpose in life, whether it’s to be a comedian, a trash man, or even a doctor. Comedians allow us to laugh so we can stay happy, a trash man picks up the trash so that trash isn’t left on the ground, and a doctor saves lives. A big thing in our life is that if you don’t have a good job, you’re useless. We are like machines. All it takes is one piece to be missing, or break, and the whole machine goes down and it wont work. Me? I’m still trying to figure out what piece ill be.

Fear

Fear is something that I’m all too familiar with. I know it all too well. Grades. Girls. Sports. It’s something that I know that I’ll never be able to stop, as fear is in everyone. But, no matter what, I don’t let that fear get in the way of me. I’ll always have the feeling of regret knowing that a short time of fear stopped me from having an amazing moment. It could be anything from trying a new food to cliff jumping. I always been told by my mother that fear was the one thing that always stopped her. I don’t want to be that way, I want to be able to do whatever I want without being held back. Maybe, just maybe one day I can.

The Youngest

I live with my two siblings. All my life I’ve been told that I should make the best out of anything, and try to be successful. My older sibling hasn’t made the best decisions and is having a lot of trouble, but she has hope that she can be a nurse. My second older sibling has a lot of talent and is an artist. Although she doesn’t want to be an Artist as a career, she can definitely become one. I, on the other hand, don’t know what I want to be. Or what I can be. Firefighter. Engineer. Doctor. I don’t know what I’ll become but whatever I do, I want it to be the best I can make it.

What’s the Best for Me

My parents have always told me that whatever they do is for the best of me. I may “hate” them when I do the dishes. Clean your room, my mom said. Do the dishes my dad would say. It feels like they’re making me do stuff all the time. It’s something that I truly have to get over. It’s kind of a funny thing since at the moment I feel like I hate them so much, but when I look back, I know that it’s not a lot. I know that they only truly want what’s best for me. One day when I have a roommate, or even a girlfriend, knowing how to cook, or clean, or keeping the house tidy, will pay off. So, Ill try my best to be grateful for what they teach me.
