Desire Vs. Right

Throughout life we are given choices. Where do i go? Who do i  hang out with? What do i do? In the end there are usually two choices..sometimes more. How do you make that decision? Listen to your parents? Your friends? or Yourself?

Usually parents will offer the "this is what you should do/what we want u to do" option. They have more experience and usually want what is best for you.

Your friends will want you to do what they are doing, or what they would do. Sometimes they give good advice.

In the end no matter who you consult, YOU will make the decision!! And you'll have to live with it....so, do you do what you want to do or what you should do. I've been thinking about what would happen if we all did what we wanted (with in reason of course...no illegal stuff)? Would we be happy? Would we regret it? Would we become better people for it?
And on the other hand what would happen if we always did what we should? Regrets seem inevitable. Probably wouldn't be happy about it right then and there, but in the long-run maybe...but does the chance of happiness replace the guarantee of happiness with the chance of being sad afterwards? Will we grow as people?

Usually people have a good balance of these types of choices. And its up to you to decide if what you desire overcomes what is right. You weigh the pros and cons. You ask for advice. You ask yourself which would be harder to live with.

Is my desire...the right thing?

To Makeup or Not To Makeup?

So I've been thinking. I don't wear makeup on a regular basis. Hardly ever, actully only on special occasions. Then it occured to me; "why would i want to wear makeup everyday?" Then you don't look special.

What sounds better? "Are you wearing make up? You look so pretty today." or...
"You look different today..." when you arent wearing makeup?

Everyone knows that when you deside not to wear makeup one day and people notice, they don't notice the natural beauty they, notice the absence of beauty.

This is why girls under 16 SHOULDN'T wear makeup. Guys will expect their looks to always be amazing. How can someone ever grow to love somone else if they have never seen their real face.
