What Do You Choose?

April 29, 2008

So for my American People 1 class I got a pretty interesting assignment:

Organize the following in order from most important (top) to you to least important (bottom): strong friendship, good health, good looks, rewarding job, good car, good home, wealth, free time for relaxation and travel, happy family. Explain in writing why you choose your top three goals explaining what these goals indicate about what you value in life.

I thought it was an interesting assignment and don’t ask me how it relates to the class because even I don’t know, but it’s different and I like it. So what do you choose?

I chose:

  1. Good health
  2. Happy family
  3. Strong friendships
  4. Rewarding job
  5. Good home
  6. Good car
  7. Wealth
  8. Free time for relaxation and travel
  9. Good looks

But that’s juss me.

Take care inshaAllah.

    Hmm..
    See, now I saw 2 answers so I wonder if my answer’s gonna be biased lol. Plus I guess you never really know what you value until you actually start to lose some of that stuff, cuz what we think we value isn’t always the same as what we really do value, right? but now that I squeezed all the fun out of an innocent assignment lol (sorry), here’s my list:

    1. Good Health
    2. Happy Family
    3. Rewarding Job
    4. Strong Friendships
    5.Good Looks
    6.Free Time for relaxation and travel
    7.Good Home
    8.Good Car
    9.Wealth

    Definitely changed the order like 5 times lol. :-D

“Beautiful words to the wise…Be careful if you make a women cry because Allah the most high counts her tears. A women came out of the rib of man, not his feet to be walked on, nor his head to be superior over; she came from his side to be his companion, under his arm to be protected, and next to his heart to be be loved.”-Ustadha Hedaya Hartford
