This life isn't about collecting scores.
Not about how many people who calls you, not about who your boyfriend is, nor your ex is, nor boy you haven't dated.
Not about which ones you have kissed, what sport do you play, and not about which boy that likes you.
Not about your shoes or your skin tone or where you live or your school.
Even also not about your exam grades, money, clothes, or which college that accept or doesn't accept you.
This life isn't about whether you have many friends or you're lonely,
and not about whether you're accepted by your environment or not.
Life isn't about that.
But life is about which ones you love, and which ones you've hurt. About how your own feeling.
About trust, happiness, and compassion.
Life is about avoiding jealous feeling, overcome your sense of careless,
and building trust. About what you've said and what do you mean.
About appreciate people for who they are and not for what they have.
And the most important,
this life is about choosing to use your life to touch people with the way that cannot be replaced by any way else.
Life is about those choices.
