i have a great life! it didn't used to be that way though; i often was bored and even depressed because there was nothing to do. my family didn't have very much money, i was overweight, ugly, and didn't have many friends. it changed in the past 2 years. i got taller (and therefore slimmer), much prettier, and i now have a lot of friends. my brother lives on a dairy farm and we have become very close friends with the owners of the place. i work at the farm now, and this will be my second year showing their cows. i also got a job at a horse stable and am riding their horses. it is really fun! we got a pool and a trampoline, and i joined a soccer team. i am in love with life!
the only thing is that i feel like i'm too lucky. i think of all the people who don't have any of those opportunities. i try not to brag about my privileges, and i try to be nice to everybody, but i'm so happy it doesn't seem normal. any answers? i know this is a hard question to answer. ^_^

Someday you will look back on this and recognize it as "teen angst". You are a powerful person and you haven't grown into it yet. Give yourself time. I can tell that you are going to do a lifetime of great things. For now, build the foundation by keeping yourself healthy and busy.

Have you ever seen "Trading places", life is allot like that.
They say money isn't everything, but by God it seems to make a lot of people happy. You may be feeling happy just because you got your but up off the couch became active and waaaalaaaa. Healthier people are all in all happier.

People are in general extremely selfish, You have to be as happy as possible and not feel guilty about it. If you are happy it is okay if you're not taking from the people that are already not very privelaged.
