Some people believe that teenage is the happiest time of one’s life.
Although
there is an increase in responsibility
with growing age
, some people think happiness
comes along with ageing. I believe one can be happy at any age
group as long as one’s desires are met. In this
essay, I will first
discuss how having no responsibility
at a young age
can be joyful for some, after that, this
essay will discuss how the freedom to decide in an adult age
group may lead to happiness
.
Teenagers are financially dependent on their parents. Although
they may not be allowed to make independent decisions, they do not have any responsibility
for their shoulders. This
luxury of having no responsibility
leads to a carefree lifestyle. This
lifestyle is looked upon as happiness
by some people at a later stage of their lives. Suggestion
happy
For example
, a middle-aged man who has to work six days a week does not have the luxury of taking a day off for hiking with friends.
In contrast
, with growing age
, people become financially independent. This
stability enables them to buy things they like. Therefore
, they can make decisions about their own choice. Although
at this
stage of life they have to take the burden of their family, some people feel happy making these choices for themselves. For example
, in a study conducted by psychiatry department of the Rawalpindi Medical University, it was found that buying a car of one’s own choice was among the top five happy things of
78 per cent of the population that was studied.
In conclusion, Suggestion
about
although
some may find the teenage to be joyful while others may see adult age
to be a happy time, I believe the fulfilment of desires brings happiness
at any age
. Some may find it in youth and others at an older age
