What is Wrong with the World?
Ms.Sutton have the class watched about five documentaries that inform us about the problems that occurring in today's society. After we finished watching all the documentaries, we were assigned to write an essay about what is the major problem of the world we are living in today and what can we do in order to fix it. This essay have to includes three documentaries out of the five that we have watched to help back up our claim.
This assignment is significant because it showed the most common problem that everyone has and it is often overlook because this problem existed in our everyday life but appeared to be unimportant. Writing this essay allowed me to reflect on my thinking about the true meaning of happiness because just like anyone else, I sometimes forget what happiness really means.
Before completing this essay, I never would have thought that the problem with the world is the strive for happiness. I learned to better appreciate what I already have and enjoy the little things in life rather than focus my attention on what I want or what I do not have. I also came to realize that having more money does not mean more happiness and happiness can never be measures by materialistic stuff.
