This is a picture of my girlfriend and I. I chose to match this quote with this specific image because I have learned how to give out love, and how to receive it through her. She has brought so much joy and happiness into my life and brought me out of my shell.

"We're so wrapped up with egotistical things, career, family, having enough money, meeting the mortgage, getting a new car, fixing the radiator when it breaks-we're involved in trillions of little acts jut to keep going. So we don't get into the habit of standing back and looking at our lives and saying 'is this all? is this what I want? is something missing?""

I think this quote really relates to me with this picture because I myself need to take a step back and watch. I need to ask myself if this is what I really want with my life. Is my only goal to make money? Or do I want a life that I can enjoy? This photo is one that I took of Round Island Lighthouse located on Round Island. When I go to Round Island I take a step back and enjoy my life. Every time I see this picture I am reminded to take a step back and think on my actions and what I want to be doing.

The match between this quote and the picture really resonates with me because it shows how goofy little me was. I felt like I had no societal expectations, and I was not required to fit in to be able to live happily. I think this picture really highlights that when compared to the person that I am now.

This quote relates to this picture because my old friends and I used to embrace our weirdness and found joy in it. Nowadays, I feel as though I have to act a certain way to be able to make it through the day. I am not happy living like this and I could only wish that I was strong enough to live by my own culture. This picture, although admittedly corny, evokes feeling of regret for not embracing who I was throughout the rest of my life.

What parts of my life would you like to improve and start living by Morrie's wisdom?

# data[].attributes.body
I want to live more like Morrie by being true to myself and not letting the society around me dictate who I am and how I should act. I have started to focus on spending my time on things that really matter, like living new moments with my loved ones, instead of getting caught in stupid trivial stuff. Morrie has taught me to drop the things in my life that don't bring any real meaning to my life and to focus on what truly matters. I really would like to be more mindful, and learn how to appreciate the small moments more and not being drug down by all the stress in my life.
