This assignment was given to me in my first college english class. My professor wrote "Life in a Busy World" on the board and told us to write what we thought living in a busy world was like. We had no other instructions other than not to use any punctuation; therefore you’ll find it to be a one page long sentence.
I have not altered this since it was assigned in September 2015 so it is the first and final draft.
Life in a busy world:
The world waits for no one so as things start to change we’re supposed to live with the change and adapt to it and doing so we do what we think we are supposed to do by what we see others doing which makes everyone a follower and so as we live we don’t realize how we are adapting to the changes and we don’t realize how we as people are changing which is good but scary in a sense of we don’t even understand how different people can be and yet we confront them when they do change in a way we don’t like and so we judge them and sometimes they care but other times they don’t and therefore we might lose that person but we have to move on regardless to keep up with our own lives so we start a new way of going about without that person and adapt to the absence of them and change the way we go and so maybe we find a new person or group of people or a new job and it’s all going great and we enjoy it and brag about it but then that falls apart and we feel like we’ve reached the bottom of the totem pole and we might not the low that we did before but then remember that we overcame it last time and can do it again so we think it will be easier because we’ve experienced it and gotten through it or maybe it might be harder than we expected it to be and have to deal with the same pain and more than before but eventually it all works out and we make it through a hard situation again and maybe we feel better about ourselves and think we can overcome anything so we press on through life with even more positivity than before because we believe that anything is possible so we keep going up and up and when you go down again it feels hard again and the pain comes back and it might not go away that time because you just can’t seem to feel the same happiness but you see other people being happy and you then realize that the world goes on no matter what you feel or what you do and no one notices and you’re stuck.
