As I'm always searching and browsing my old friends from HS profiles', I can't help but feel just so extremely lucky. Most of them are out doing drugs, smoking till they can't breathe, having sex wih their exes on a day-to-day basis..bottom line they're wrecks.
It somewhat saddens me because I know how much they're all capable of, but just won't use that for anything good. And at the same time, I feel so goddamn proud of myself.
In college, job, good standing with grades, good family and friends..I have everything I need to live comfortably, and I worked hard for all of that I did. So I deserve it.
So to those young teenagers still following trends and doing what your friends tell you to: Stop, and get your head out of those cotton candy clouds no matter how much their sugary fumes are addicting.
What worries more is..I have to keep an eye out on my younger sister since she's going through all of this. But I'll be damned if she ever does drugs or smokes, I don't know what I'll do. I can't accept the fact they're growing up. I want to encase them in a snowglobe and shake them up in this glitter that will keep them my baby sisters forever. I don't want them to see and witness the things that are out there. But..alas..it is inevitable.
I must prepare for the worse. Oh my, I think I'm being my cynical self again.

Hi Elusivemine,
It will be hard at times. But the good usually out weighs the bad. Love may not conquer all but it does go a long way to help. Just keep on loving and talking. It really does help.
And when you feel how hard it is, remember it is even harder on the parents.
Hugs my friend, Euphoria
