I wish I was brave enough to be the change I wish to see in the world.

Hooooolly crappers.
Not saying that crap is holy, or anything.
I feel like a traitor to the blogging society!
I have not blogged in... lets say, practically two months!
Yikes.
So much has happened, I don't even know where to start!
Well, I guess that school is over, exams are done, and it's SUMMER! :)
Yayyyyy, right?
No, not really. I kinda like school (Am I a normal teenager? Wait, obviously nope!) because it keeps me busy, I guess. Summer is sort of boring.
I also celebrated my birthday, recently (and by recently, I mean within the time I have not blogged) and now I feel incredibly old. Holy man. I don't even KNOW how I'll feel when I turn eighty - if I live that long, that is.
What else?
Oh. Me and him- completely done.
Regrets?
Sort of.
I guess there was nothing there to begin with.
Wow. What an awfully boring life I have, eh?
It makes me very depressed.
You know whats really weird, though?
Even though I hardly have time to blog- every night, before I got to bed, I do a "imaginary blog" in my head. Like what I would write, word for word, If I were blogging at the moment.
And usually its just complaining about how much I dislike the choices that my teenage generation make.
Why can't people think for themselves?
I was listening to the radio one day, and I heard something along the lines "Everyone says they want to be different, but they have to be different with their own "Clique" or crowd... they are unable or brave enough to be different by themselves."
I thought it was extremely wise.
So that hippie boy at school? I have so much respect for you.
I think that kids don't realize that high school doesn't last forever.
Not that I have anything against gym teachers- its just I believe that they are the perfect example of kids who never got over high school.
And kids are still obsessed with alcohol, sex, and partying as well.
Nothing ever changes, does it?
I read this one magazine - Grip Magazine, I think its called.
I really like it because they approach teen issues- like alcohol and binge drinking for example- with a different light on things.
They talked about how every teen will have to make choices sometime in the future about alcohol- and that who their friends are, or who they hang out with, play a huge part in what decisions they will make.
What I liked about it, was that the article didn't allude to: DON'T DRINK! IT'S TERRIBLE GOD WILL HATE YOU AND YOU WILL GO TO JAIL AND DIE! Sort of thing. They just stated how that you will have to choose, based on what you believe. Its up to you to make the right choice, but listen to your body and heart.
I liked that.
Like I said before, kids usually can't think for themselves these days. Or think for others, either.
My interpretation of things is that they focus too much on appearance, social lives, and "livin' life" sort of stuff.
We are the next generation of workers. We will run the country in ten years.
Nation wide and worldwide issues still need to be resolved. Environment issues are still issues.
If our youth don't care about it now, will they care in the future?
I am hearing things about this generation of mine... media is saying how the youth are more intellectual. They care and think more about rights, issues, and peace. They care more.
Is that actually true?
Youth stereotypes state otherwise. We steal, vandalize, break the law, and party.
We don't vote. We usually don't get involved in politics or issues.
Can one person influence this entire population?
Is there actually hope, for this crumbling world?
Sure- people say times are good.
Don't get me wrong- I'm not complaining.
I just think its that way because we ignore- or sweep under the rug- issues that don't want to be dealt with.
The Environment.
Political Issues in other countries.
Minorities.
Economic Inequalities.
And millions more.
Soon, too much dirt and crap is going to be accumulated under that rug.
Sometime, someone is going to have to clean up that mess.
If our youth don't care, how are we going to deal with it?
Is so much dirt going to be accumulated that it will destroy the rug altogether?
Or will the job be too big for one person to clean up? Will we need everyone to help?
I don't know. I think we just need another John Trudeau. Or Tommy Douglas. Or Martin Luther King Junior.
Or maybe someone even better.
