I recently came down without about five thousand different illnesses (yes, I'm being dramatic) and I have been basically on bed rest since the end of last week and I'm going a little stir crazy. So, here's a list of things to do while you're ill in bed, slowly falling behind in all of your classes, watching all your friends go out and have a social life while you lay in bed awaiting your slow death.

1. SLEEP

a.k.a pretty much all I have been able to do


2. TAKE LOTS OF DRUGS

3. GET DRESSED UP TO TRY TO MAKE YOURSELF FEEL BETTER AND REALIZE IT DID NOTHING

4. WATCH NETFLIX AND REALIZE YOU HAVEN'T BEEN PAYING ATTENTION BECAUSE YOU ARE TOO DRUGGED UP TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON

5. TRYING TO CATCH UP ON HOMEWORK AND FAILING

6. TRYING TO GO OUT WITH FRIENDS AND SOCIALIZE

7. REALIZING YOU DID NOTHING BUT SLEEP ALL DAY SO NOW IT'S 1AM AND YOU'RE LIT

8. THEN YOU WAKE UP THE NEXT MORNING AND REALIZE YOU STILL FEEL LIKE DEATH

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
