life
Do you ever just wonder what the purpose of your existence is? I do this a lot. I just sit in my room doing my homework, and then I wonder, am I ever going to become someone important doing this for the next 10 years of my life. Everyone is doing it, going to school, finishing assignments, graduating, going to college, and getting a job. Most people are content with this idea of a somewhat common, ordinary, and typical life. But I’m not. I want to do something that people will remember me for. I don’t want to just be an extra human being on the planet Earth and die one day. I want to be known, I want to set a legacy, and I want to be remembered for something I did, by myself with my hard work.
Now I know this sounds like a cliche Disney movie where the protagonist is a peppy teenager who is about to go on their first day of school, but really, think about it. Do you want to be someone who goes to work just for that paycheck at the end of the month, or do you want to do something every single day, where you are actually content with what you are doing. Not just content as in living a comfortable life, but content as in having a true passion for what you do, and never getting tired or bored of it. For example, I love theatre and acting. Every time I watch a show or movie with an actor about my age or a little older, I do a whole report on them. Some of my google searches might include, for example (this was after I watched Stranger Things), “Millie Bobby Brown age,” “Millie Bobby Brown school,” “how did Millie Bobby Brown get the role of Eleven.” It just makes me curious that these people, about my age, are literally known by a lot of the world, and they get to have a life working on movies and something they are so passionate about. I know it sounds immature, but I challenge you, think about yourself, are you living a life filled with passion, or are you just… existing.
With a perspective, I’m Tanisha Varma.
