So what is an accomplishment in life? Does making alot of money mean you accomplished anything. Does creating a business accomplish anything? Is it how you effect other peoples livs that give you a sense of accomplishment. I really don't know... I mean my whole life i have always felt the need to have some big accomplishment in life. It was only recently that i noticed that i don't even know what to call a accomplishment. I guess i think a big accomplishment would be seen as somehow making the world a better place. Does this mean something has to be improved. Or could i just make alot of people happy while I am here and consider that making the world a better place? I dont know the answer, but i know that i would like to either change something to make the world a better place, or more. By more i mean I wouldn't just be satisfied knowing i made people around me happier. I would have to have a deep impact on many of the people around me before i would feel that i had really accomplished something big. Not just close friends and families but people i don't even know... Like writing a book that affects peoples lives. Writing music that many hold dear. Creating a movie that changes people opinions in life. I would actually love to accomplish all these goals but who knows if i ever will. Until then i guess i will just keep working hard and going to school and writing down all the ideas in my head that sound good and may be worth pursuing at some point or another.
