Do it for yourself,
And nobody else, because
You are left alone

At the end of the
Day with all of the choices
Only you have made.
Sometimes I need to remember that we as people must do things to please ourselves. Don't work out endlessly to get "that body" to make society view you as beautiful; do it because YOU want that kick *** body. Don't study current events so you can chime in next time your friends spark up a conversation like that just you you appear "knowledgeable"; do it because it genuinely interests you, or that you really do want more knowledge of the world around you. Though this is a bit didactic of me, I just hope that you realize that satisfaction rests in doing things for yourself, not others. At the end of the day, all you have is you and the choices you made and YOU must live with them.
