Default Re: What is important in life?

[ QUOTE ]

I felt that the people in Cleveland were holding me back when I lived there, since most of my friends were unmotivated and I let that influence me in a big way. However after being with them for two weeks, it's clear that most of them have matured but keep those close friendship bonds that I lack here.

I predict you'd start to feel this way again in a few months if you moved back. I could be wrong, but man is it easy to relapse into old habits when you return to familiar territory.

As for what is important in life, there is obviously no answer to this question. You can hear what other people find important, but ultimately it's your own decision that has significance. Many people would probably find the baseball (as a thing in itself) pretty inconsequential, for example.
