Exactly correct. They are what I call "value INDICATORS"... something you might LIKE to value but really don't want to put the effort into the decision to REALLY VALUE it.... just a like or a hobby!

EDUCATION
Happiness is a journey, not a destination. For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin—real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. #<Author:0x00007f6ac8670798>
