do you ever find yourself just laying in bed, like how i am now; and you're online trying to find a cure for your boredom. either you watch a whole season of weeds on netflix or you surf tumblr for something to entertain you. and then you sit back because your neck begins to hurt and you start to think about your posture and you blame it on technology. you then start to wonder what you would be doing right now if there was no internet, or lack there of; and you start to question what you are doing with your life. you could be out there changing the world as we know it, but you resort to just fantasizing about it rather than actually experiencing reality.

now given, i am only sixteen and still have to finish school in order to get my ged, but i feel like i'm waisting away my existence. i constantly think to myself that there are so many opportunities out there for me; but i am not old enough to start them. if not now, when? yes, i use this slogan that could apply to anything, but in all seriousness; when will i ever be old enough if not now? if i am able to think about doing things such as going away for a month or less to work on a farm, or help kids in starving countries, what is stopping me from going out and doing them now.

i am not afraid of the world, i do not wish to conquer the world, but i want to experience it.
