What truley matters?

Life? Happiness? Procreation? Religion? Friends? Relationships? Education? Learning? Love? Laughter? Your self? Anyone? Do these things matter? Something that may mean something to you may mean nothing at all to me. Is a person's perception the only thing that matters to that person? My answer is yes. The only thing that matters is what matters to you. Society might say that a trend or fad is important. I say, decide what matters to you. If you just swim in the currents of the societal river, you will be slowly stripped of your uniqueness. And what's a world with out free thinkers? I find it interesting that the society tries to unify. But with out people who broke trend, our world, our society would be nothing like it is. The paradox is strangely funny. Think about it.
