The question for this week is "If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don't like, while we like so many things we don't do."

My answer- In life we have many choices, but we also have responsibilities. Responsibilities include helping family, doing homework and going to school, work, sports ect. We may not always want to do our responsibilities because they aren't fun or cool, but we do them anyways because it's the right thing. We also have choices. Like choosing to get an education or not, going to work or calling in sick. Maybe we can't always aford the things we like to do, especially in today's economy. I like to swim, and that's not a cheap sport. You have to have a suit($30-$50)goggles($2-$10)cap($5-$10) etc. It adds up fast.

My friend Taylor-I think it is because some people are afraid to do what they really want to do and just go through the motions of life.

My friend Emily-Maybe it has to do with right and wrong, like we really want to go do something illegal and we don't do it, or it could have to do with courage as the comment before mine suggests.
