Lesson 55 --- MY THINGS ARE MY OWN
Lesson55: MY THINGS ARE MY OWN


 
 
I collect stamps because I like doing it. Collecting them is educational because I find out all sorts of things about the people and things on the stamps and the countries they come from. It can also be a profitable hobby, since sometimes the value of stamps goes up astronomically. But these reasons are really just rationalizations. I don’t collect stamps for intellectual or monetary purposes, I do it for fun.

The same thing is true for the books I chose to read, the TV shows and movies I watch, the video games I play, the sports I participate in, even the friends I hang around with. No one else has to approve of what I do. Someone else may even think that my choices are silly. But they are part of me because they are mine. They define my personality and are the essence of my being. What I am is what I do!
