In “The Whistle,” a short essay by Benjamin Franklin, he emphasizes that many people sacrifice desirable pleasures to achieve a false happiness. He conveys this message by illustrating people who only care about popularity and people who are willing to do anything for an adventure. One type of person who sacrificed desirable pleasures to achieve a false happiness and personal worth is the person who neglects everything else to gain popularity.

As Franklin grew older, he began to observe how other people also “gave too much for their whistles.”
