Life isn't that bad, drama queens.


I love the outdoors, and the sunshine. I love walking with my boyfriend, and spending time with my family. I love enjoying life, and thinking about the bright future that lies ahead of me. So, what don't I love? I don't love listening to people who think they are mature whining. I don't love reading a poem about their angst, or their troubles. I don't love seeing pre-teens who live in perfectly normal, middle class homes pretending like their lives are miserable, when they have everything they could ever ask for. There are people all around the world who are going hungry. There are people who are not sure if they will live to see another day. Your lives are not that bad. Get over yourselves.
