The Next Best Thing


            It seems that no matter where you are in life, you are always waiting for the next best thing. I believe the biggest example of this for me was in high school. I got so tired of the people and their drama, I just wanted to leave. College seemed like the next best thing. I was waiting, hoping to be somewhere where the people were mature and there would be less busy work.
            College is not that way. Although there is less busy work, there is more studying to do. And the drama, it doesn’t go away. Now, I do like college and defiantly choose to be here, I just now realize how easy high school was. I didn’t appreciate how nice it was until I had left.
            I feel as though life itself is always this way. We focus on out wants for the future instead of enjoying the now. We must learn to find the simple things in life enjoyable instead of looking far into the future. I now no longer think about how great the next step will be, exhausted in the life im living. I look at college as hard but a great experience. I try to live each moment as important.
