Stuck

This world. This cold world. Many people, including me, are feeling the wrath of this "recession." The common question of these victims (college students, single parents, kids who get kicked out at 18, and people who are just broke) : How does the world expect me to live? The answer: IT DOESN'T. 

Jobs are rarely available. And if you are like me, TIME is rarely available. But this is still no excuse for not being able to live. Use your creativity. Find a way. Find something you are good at and stress that talent. Make it something you can benefit off of. You will be amazed at how many people would be interested in you. You just have to be interested in yourself. I try to stay away from the word "can't," so I'm here to say, DON'T give up. DON'T give in. If you do, you will only fall in to the desperate traps of life. Please people, don't resort to violence, taking what is not yours, or selling drugs. Believe me, I've been to those places, and they will only lead you down a long dark path. 

Life is but an obstacle. If you don't work toward finishing it, you will forever be stuck in the same spot you are in today. What does that leave you? Behind in the race. While you took the time to sit and sulk about how you "can't" do things, the next guy is at the end of the course ringing the bell. Learn to love yourselves. Take care of yourselves. If you don't, you will not find the rewarding things in life.
