Kate--> I really liked the fact that you said the meaningful things in your life bring you happiness and have a good purpose. I also liked how you described the fact that not having many friends isnt important if the small amount you have cares for you.
Juliette--> I liked how your video included things you enjoyed in your life whil;e still having a good balance of your family and friends.
Ellen--> I liked how yopur video focused on your sister,showing that she is a very important part of your life. I also liked how you added the Greek song to show us about where your from.
John Li--> I like how your video was filmed of your family, such as your twin playing the guitar and your family having dinner. I also liked how you organized it.
Insight- I noticed that in most of the peoples videos the pattern that they followed to figure out what was to be added was that of happiness and meaning to their lives. They chose things that they enjoyed,love and cared for. I also noticed how many people chose to add meaningful things,focusing on the positive aspects of their lives not the negative.

In order for me to know what in my life is truly meaningful or not i ask myself
what is very important to me ? The answer to this was my family and friends so that is why i chose to make my video based on them.The importance of things in my life makes them meaningful. how much i care, do these things make me stronger and happier? This is the criteria i used 2 choose what would go in my video.
I found that the pattern of most of the meaningful things in my life is that it has to do with people that surround me. These people are around me constantly, they are relatable, which makes it easier for them to mean something to me. I noticed that many material products aren't meaningful to me. I think this is because they dont affect my life in such a string way ike people do. People have the power to make you feel special and needed while material things make u feel nice, they arent reatable so it makes it hard for them to affect your life in a strong way.
I belive my video is an honest description of me to some extent, if i was able to add more it would be even more honest. My video shows the important people in my life but it doesnt show the things i do in my everyday life. I think my life is interesting and fun and i enjoy it so much, but i dont know what people think of it. To some point it doesnt matter to me, because i know i live my life the way i ant to live it.
I think my life is meaningful in both perspectives. On the outside perspective it may seem a bit duller though. I spend alot of time with a small grouo of friends and some people see that as being boring but i kno these people are always gonna be there for me when i need them and thats all that matters, i also spend alot of time with my mom which from an outside view can seem dull but she gives me great advice when i need it the most so she is one of the most meaningful parts of my life. From the inside perspective of corse my life is meaningful. There are some things people dont think ar meaningful but they mean so much to me.
The questions that are still on my mind are why some people believe there lives arent meaningful? i think everyones lives are meaningful, they just need time to sit and realize it. Also i ask myself if anyones life is ompletly meaningful? is it possible to not have somthing that isnt completly meaningful?

This video includes pictures of the people that make my life meaningful. Some friends from and out of school, my cousins who always know how to have a good time, my mom and other family members.Friends and family are the most important things in life because they are the people that help and watch me grow as a person. My family is always there for me when i need them and i know i can always count on them for anything, my friends they just make life better, they make it fun and they always know how to make any situation into a funny one. The video just shows us all in situation where we were having fun and enjoying ourselves. Also an education is important so i added pictures of my skool notebooks, without a good education you cant really be someone great in life. All parts of my video are meaingful and make my life meaningful. If i was able to i would have liked to include more videos of things that i enjoy doing that make my life worth living. I chose not to include meaningless things in my video.
