Assignment:
You need help to identify a contemporary myth prevalent in North American society. You need to describe how this particular contemporary myth has shaped my values, practices, and worldview. If the myth has not shaped me directly and personally, analyze how it has affected the society around me. I am having a hard time trying to figure out what to write about. Any suggestions? This was one that someone had suggested, but I am not really sure this is what it means.
Happiness is dependent on one's own life circumstances
One can only be happy when they can buy whatever material goods they want
Once you set your goals and achieve them, you never have to worry about happiness ever again
