Life.

So I'm going to question whether or not it's worth living life the way I do, or have I been doing it wrong throughout my high-school career?  There is no guarantee that this journal will ever matter in my life, simply because there is no guarantee that my life will carry on anymore past tomorrow, or long enough for my Theory of Knowledge grade to matter.  There is no guarantee that anything I do will matter.  So why do I sit here, late at night, laboring over homework, if none of it will matter?  Because that's such a glass-half-empty approach!  I think it's always in one's best interest to live life for tomorrow, and try and make a better future for themselves and the ones around them.  I have goals and ambitions, and I plan to achieve them.  I'm not going to sleep through high-school.  I'm going to take advantage of the opportunity it presents, and learn as much as possible. To live life for today would be stupid, because you may have fun today, but you have to deal with the consequences eventually.  It may be more painful at times, but a long-term, goal-oriented life is the one that I've chosen, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
