[Music] they say that happiness is pretty simple someone to love something to do something to look forward to i just wish they had been more specific anyways hey my name's kariza i'm a 20-something-year-old filipino girl from canada i heard that writing helps with stress and anxiety and well between the world ending every week and a quarter life crisis i need all the help i can get [Music] it's been hard past few months i felt like i couldn't do anything at all or well maybe i just didn't know where to start i think before all this i was very preoccupied with the business of everyday things [Applause] and since then i've had a lot of time to think about you know the meaning of it all more often than not i took things for what they were so busy just trying to survive i guess but when you take away all of life's distractions you're left faced with a question we avidly avoid what am i really doing here sometimes i feel like everyone has a down pat and i'm still trying to figure it out romance wow they have it so easy we watch movies and hope that life is as fluid and calculated as it is on screen either this or that with a clear outcome of each decision they make [Music] it's like looking into a mirror and seeing how you'd want everything to be we hear things that hit our heartstrings and watch stories with pieces of us in it and we look at it as a guide to life when really it's just an altered version of it the loneliness the heartbreak the mess the freedom we all want an example when one size fits all handbook to help us navigate through but we can't just wait around for life to happen to us we have to seek it we have these expectations from movies and books and we try to look for answers in them but ultimately the only way to get through this thing we call life is to actively participate in it [Music] but you know i like the notion that everyone has to live for themselves and not wait around for someone to tell them who they are we can sit around and feel bad and blame other people for what they did or didn't do or blame ourselves for things we've never told them but in the end life isn't stuff for anybody you are here that life exists and identity that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse you have to do things you have to take risks it's the only way to find out who we really are and what we want to do with our time on this earth [Music] and even if we fail what better way is there to live you
