Love Poem

What is Love?

Some say love is like a candle,
continuously burning till the end of its life.
Others say love is like money,
something no one can live without.

I say love is like a deck of cards.
You never know who will be dealt,
but you know that somewhere in that fray of randomness
hides what you are looking for.

Physical or Sedentary

There are two kinds of people in the world, physical and sedentary. One kind prefers physical activities and tasks while the other likes to relax at home. I would say that I am a sedentary kind of guy. Each day, I sit on my comfy grey computer chair playing video games, watching videos or chatting on social media that could go for hours on end. I tend to avoid vigorous outdoor activity that seem tiring and enjoy the comfort of my home. However, my preference for sedentary activity does not make me a lazy person or what some people call it, “a couch potato”. In fact, I am an active member of my community. I participate in many clubs and social events such as Model UN and my friends’ birthday parties. I help out my community through volunteering at places like the Vancouver Aquarium. This style of living allows me to meet new people and learn new things every day.

Another way to think of this is the use of a spectrum, with physical people on the left and sedentary people on the right. There is no true physical or sedentary person as most people will fit somewhere in between the two ends. I believe people shouldn’t try to force themselves into being on either side of the spectrum. You are where you are on the spectrum because that is the place where you feel most comfortable. I do not think people should change their lifestyle do to peer pressure. After all, what really matters in the end Is living happily.
