my secret little pact

I used to be a regular high school kid. I play sports, three instruments and maintain a good GPA. Yet for the most part I was not happy. I was in no way depressed or sad. I was always just content. One extraordinarily ordinary day I wrote down every thing I did during a normal day. That night I wrote why I did these things and did I enjoy them. I do on average forty-three different activities a day not including classes. I enjoy seven. This was a wake up call.

Should I really live me life only enjoying sixteen percent of what I do. That’s not even one-forth. Not even one-forth of the things I did during the day made me smile, laugh, or be proud of what I did. After discovering this I made a secret little pact to myself that for a whole day I would only do things I enjoyed regardless of what others thought. For the first time in way too long I had an entire day without stress, without negative energy, with only, get ready for it, FUN!

I am Kegan and for the rest of my life I vow never to fall into peer pressure again, never to do thing I don’t want to do, and to enjoy life. This is my motto, this is what I believe. It may seem simplistic to simply enjoy life but hey if it makes me happy I am doing it!
