To seek happiness compared to the world of rainbows and unicorns that is so over played on social media today and leads to an enormous amount of stress on todays younger generation. The idea of eternal happiness and always looking perfect is an illusion, and while her role as a dancer and now representative of Michigan in the scholarship program does require some staging, she's still a very real 18 year old, and even came out bare footing it in her yard.
