As I'm growing up and get to compare different personality types to my own and to that of those who raised me, my perception of what happiness is seems to be changing. My parents were never, and still aren't the type to let loose, kick back and just chill. They're hardly spontaneous. They work hard and just chase money. On the other hand, I see a lot of people who aren't well off believing that if they had more money, they'd be happier. So, I'm faced with deciding which route to choose: Should I believe that money will bring happiness, or should I trust in myself and my relationships and friendships to bring me happiness? Most people would say a combination is best but how can one have two opposing goals in mind at once?
