No Wrong Way

Author's Note: In Reading, we were given an assignment to create a journaling entry on a quote of our choice. We had to say what it means in our own words, say if we agreed or disagreed with the quote, and we had to relate to the quote.   The quote is: "Everything has been figured out except how to live."  ~Jean-Paul Sarte



When we need to know something, we look it up on Google.  Google has all the answers except one, how do we live? Jean-Paul Sarte is explaining this in her quote: "Everything has been figured out except how to live." You can figure out everything you want to know, but never how to live. There's no wrong answer on how to live, and no one's going to tell you if you're living your life wrong.

I do agree with this quote because if you live the life you want to, you are going to enjoy your life. No one is going to tell me to live my life differently. If they do, I'll just tune out.  I live my life my way, and there is nothing anyone can do about it.

It relates to my life because I am one of those people that want to know everything. And listening to this quote just reminds me that I am never going to find a right answer on how to live my life properly, and there is nothing I can do to change that.
