It's weird how at 16 I've learned so much, it's almost overwhelming.

I wish things didn't have to be as difficult and confusing as they are. Cause everything is pretty fucking confusing. No one tells you anything, keeping you in the dark and then they get mad at you for being blind. The world is so fucked up it's almost too much to comprehend. The way we eat i is killing us. The clothes we wear are all from some low-paying impoverish, third-world countries. The products we use give us cancer. And worst of all the government we have does whatever it can to keep us distracted from whats right in front of us, and IT WORKS!!

I'm not trying to ramble on like some crazy person, I'm just trying to help people actually see the world for what it is. Because in a lot of countries, especially the U.S., people are blind.

The movie WALL-E is a good interpretation of what I'm talking about. It's more of an extreme and exaggerated version but it's still all very true. In WALL-E people are giving literal blinders which keep them from living in reality or even seeing what's around them. That's what's happening to us as a nation, or more correctly what has always happened to us.

It may be a cartoon but that is what a lot of people are like nowadays. We have our phones, tablets, and TVs to distract us from the real problems in the world, and no one tells us otherwise. It's the norm to not really care about what happens anywhere else. Caring has become taboo in every shape and form

As for me, I'm just someone that feels everything in a way I can't explain. I would call it an enhanced way of being empathetic. But this isn't about me, it's about everyone and the lives we live.

So I've never written anything before, I really don't know if anyone will even read it. But if some one does please feel free to leave a comment about this chapter.

In this little book, I will be going chapter by chapter discussing different problems. If you have any suggestions please feel free to comment some down below.

Thank you so much

Love,

Daniella
