It is only recently that I have realised how many things that we stress about in this world don't even matter. People are constantly worried about how they look, what materialistic aspects of life they are missing out on and how many eco bags are not being sold. It frustrates me to think that these are the only important things in some people's lives.
Everyday terrible things are happening to people, but most of the time no one bothers to stop and notice because of all of this other junk that is clouding our universe. People are sick, missing exams, supporting families, losing sight of who they are, grieving and dying; only last week a girl at Kingscliff High School gassed herself - The 3rd sibling of 4 to die before the age of 20.
This is the stuff that really matters. Her friends are trying not to feel guilty and to deal with her death without failing the HSC or wanting to join her.
This is what really counts.
I just wish people would see that.
