Many people have their own Golden Ages. It is like a dream that a person would like to
live out. Many of these dreams tend to be similar to a utopia, or a perfect world. Due
to the fact that their Golden Age is a perfect world, most of these dreams are a little
bit on the unrealistic side. Most of them never come true. However, I am not so picky.
I would make the best attempt to make my life the best it could be, and also knowing that
it could come true, and still be on the realistic side.
You have to understand that when people come up with their own Golden Age, he/she
usually takes their life and alters it to a stage where there is no similarity between
reality, and their utopia. I would do something a little bit different. You see, I
would take my pre-existing life, and just make changes to that. If I were to come up
with my own Golden Age, this is what I would do.
I would start with my present standing in life. That would be a tenth grade student in
high school. Then to make it dream like, I would analyze to see what I could do to make
my life better. I would find out what things were important to me at that time and what
things I could change to make my future life better. For example, I would probably start
out with school, since that is very important to most people at my age. There are pretty
much two things that are important to kids around my age, the social aspect and the
academic aspect. I would not change my personality, but I would rather like to be
friends and get to know other people I don't know now. Maybe it would be neat to be the
King my senior year. Also, because I am turning sixteen real soon, I would have this
really neat car that not many other people had. Than the next thing I would do would be
to adjust my grades, so that I would graduate a valedictorian. Then would probably wish
to be an athletic star so I could play on any team I wanted. All of this would lead up
to me graduating very successfully. Since I was so successful, I would be able to
attend any university I wanted. I would not worry about paying for anything because I
would have a full ride scholarship. Than I would pass college with flying colors,
playing for the team, and having a lot of fun in my free time. Now, I would be ready to
take the next step in my life. Getting a job. I would probably open up my own business
so I could work for myself, and have my company be a very internationally known and
successful. I would just pretty much live the rest of my life doing the things I like to
do best. Also, because I am making so much money, more than I would know what to do
with, I would give as much as I could to charity. Then I would like to die a wealthy and
prosperous man knowing that I gave to the needy as well. It would be comforting to watch
my kids grow up similarly to the way I did.
