I Believe

     I believe that if you are of age and able to financially support yourself then you should! I don't understand how people can be in their twenties and still living at home not on their own. My brother is a perfect example of this. He just turned twenty-two and he has been working at home depot for almost four years now but he still lives at home with my mom. Yes i understand that California is a very expensive place to live and i would not have been able to support myself there but he is fully capable of being able to support himself there. He chooses not too. He has many options that he just doesn't take advantage of! I am eighteen years old and moved a couples states away and am completely supporting myself with no help. That just proves that he has many options but he just isn't utilizing them! He isn't the only one though that does that. Personally i love my mom to death she is my best friend and my number one supporter in life but when i turned eighteen and graduated high school i was ready to move out and start my own life. I was ready for my own independence and responsibility! At the time i had no idea if i could actually do it but i am doing fine and happier than ever! I just don't understand how people can feel content living with their parents their whole life and not have that independence because independence is probably one of the best feelings. Knowing that you are in control of your own life feels great! I would never be able to move back in with my mom after being on my own. I know that people are probably scared of the unknown but you are never going to accomplish anything in life if you are scared. You will not go anywhere. You have to look at it as yes i might fail but at least i did try, and if you make it and you don't fail then that just shows you how truly strong you are!
