How Far Do You Agree With Le Guin

Le Guin states that end goals are important, but acknowledges that the process of attaining the goals are also valuable. This observation places importance on the trip more so than the end goal. She asserts this by stating it in a compound sentence structure to express the meaning of her words in the simplest terms possible.
I agree with Le Guin that the adventure itself is more significant than your end goal. When journeying to accomplish your goals, you learn invaluable life lessons and make memories. Those are the things that will carry you through your journey and remain with you for the rest of your life. A real life application of this quote is high school. The end goal is to graduate with a diploma, vital for the rest of your life;
however, the four years spent in high school are arguably even more meaningful. This four-year period of teenagers’ lives is a learning experience. During the advancement from the beginning of freshman year to the end of senior year, teenagers gain a plethora of skills that they will utilize for the rest of their lives, including how to manage stress and a full schedule, prioritize, and make friends. Some lessons are learned the hard way, such as not procrastinating, studying for exams, and not forgetting homework. Another important part of the journey is the memories that you make. In high school, memories of sporting events, dances, or fun activities with your friends will stay with you for the rest of your life. Le Guin could have written this quote to remind others to slow down and enjoy their journey. Many people, hasty to reach their goals, forget to reflect upon their adventures or process their learning experiences. This occurs quite obviously during the end of the school year. Perhaps it would be beneficial to soak in the experience so making it to the end of the year is not the end of an arduous task, but the end of an adventure.
