Love/Family

This question was very difficult to answer because I feel as though all of the options were equally acceptable answers. I think what’s important to note is that there is no correct answer to this poll. If I could, I would’ve voted more than once. I think my impulse answer was to choose “to be educated” was the most important goal to me—but then as I continued to think about it, I realized that without the love and support of my family I would not be where I am today. I think that all of the options are connected. However, I strongly believe that love/family is the basis of reaching other goals such as “to have money”, “to be educated”, and “to have a good job.” I think that the love we get from our families is what gets us to become educated. Once we’re educated then we can get a good job and make money. But for example, money can’t buy you love or a family and life itself is a learning process. We educate ourselves everyday by just living. My family is the reason why I work so hard; they are the most important part of my life. Without the love of my family I would be so lost.
