In America we always see people having trouble with money and the people that have money are usually never satisfied, they always need to try to please themselves somehow. Most of the time you see people that don’t have a lot of things, happy with what they have.That's only because they know they can’t really buy much because they don’t have a lot of money so they like what they have. Some people don’t know how good they have until they lose it or even see how it is on the other side.
One of the thing I mostly value in life that is an expense is my iPod. I couldn’t live without it. It wakes me up in the morning, I listen to it on the bus, while cleaning, and while doing homework. I feel like I’m in my own world when I listen to the music I like. To me it just makes me feel safe and that no one can judge me. Its where I can control what I want to listen to. I like to listen to all kind of different music, but I mainly listen to heavy metal and alternative rock. These kind of music may seem heavy or even scary to other people, but it makes me feel relaxed. I basically grew up listening to this kind of music. My dad listened to it everyday when he brought me to day care when I was little. He said it was his “morning coffee.” I can’t really disagree with him on that since I do the same.
Something priceless that I enjoy the most is being with my friends. I can be myself around them. When in school I feel like i have to pretend to be someone I’m not, it doesn’t seem right to me. Where I hang out with my friends are at football games, at my house, and at parks. We usually just goof off and never really pay much attention to anything that is going on around us. We just have fun with whatever we're doing. Being with my friends is a time where I can relax, talk about whats going on in life right now, and talk about things I can’t really talk to my parents about. I have three main friends that are always there for me and never fail me. That is a what makes them true friends to me.
I value these items the most out of anything in the entire world! I value my iPod and my friends because, one, I could lose a friend anytime, anywhere and two, my iPod has all the songs I’ve liked since 5th grade. These items are kind of similar in many ways to me. For starters, I can be/have things my own way instead of how people want me to be like or tell me what I should listen to (i.e. radio). Secondly, theses things are always there for me when I need them and I always know just where to find them. Lastly, some of the songs I have on my iPod reminds me of my friends or even some songs I listen to, I listen to them with my friends.
Now that you know about the things that I value the most in my life. Why not share about a few things that you value the most in your life? Its not really that hard if your talking about something you like / interested in / something you value. Think about it for a little. What is one thing you value the most that doesn’t cost a thing and then something you value the most that cost money? It could be anything in the world. To your baby blanket to your million dollar watch you got from your grandfather. Just value everything you have because it could just disappear in a blink of an eye.
