Today in class, we learned a little more background information about the story "A Message To Garcia." It was published in 1899, where it soon went viral. More than 14 million copies were sold, and two movies were made. Many looked to this as an inspirational story. It makes people stop and think of all the potential they have, but why they don't use it to their advantage. Most think, "It's not my job, can't you do it?" This is a bad way to look at your job. Are you going to be the person who makes their life miserable because they hate their job? But hey, it makes a lot of money so it's worth it right? Right? No. Don't be the person who spends their days counting them down. It's important to find a job that you enjoy, even if it doesn't make the salary you wished you had. I think this story does a good job at explaining this. This is also something we went over in class today, that I tend to think about a lot. I want to wake up everyday when I'm older and see it as a new start. Not a drag of the last day. I really believe that this is the key to happiness! Do you??? If everyone lived this way, life would be such a happier place to live.
