Before I sleep.

When I should be trying to sleep, I often lay in bed thinking about all of the bad going on in the world. And I know I’m not the only one that does this, but why do I feel the need to beat myself up for it? I know none of it is my fault. But I just can’t help but feel like a piece of s**t that is a waste of space because I am doing absolutely nothing to make a difference in the world. I’m stuck here in this tiny town with all of these ignorant people, stuck taking tests and studying every day. I’ve begun to get tired of this. It’s never ending, go to school for a bit, then work for the rest of my life. Just like everyone else. I want to do something meaningful with my life, something I can say I was satisfied with before I die.

if you want to create are help with world peace it wont happen, peace requires equality and equality is impossible to reach since someone will be the underdog and someone always on top. but if you want to make a difference be different not equal. write how you feel not how you want others to feel.

You'll grow out of that when you get stuck into the working world, houses, mortgages, kids, you won't have time to think. In fact they'll be times when you won't even know you're arse from your elbow.

Hey, I feel like this too. If it's any consolation, writing is doing something meaningful with your life.
