Document Summary
The good life is an amorphous phrase, susceptible to many interpretations. Likewise, the good life is subjective, unique, and personal to each individual. To fully understand the good life, one must shed all desire in material and worldly possessions to decide the intrinsic goodness of what it means to live happily. Naturally, one often hears the argument that wealth and power lead to a good life. Ostensibly, many individuals feel that they desire to be doctors or lawyers, when in reality money and power cloud their judgment. They later find that the occupation is not suited for their talents or interests. On the other hand, i have always had a passion for psychology and neuroscience, but my lack of skill in the subject matter prevents me from making this final, life- altering decision. The uf liberal arts and sciences college will offer me a taste of general psychology as well as behavioral and cognitive neuroscience.
