All you can do is trust your gut and continually expand your knowledge base...and think before you act. You'll be fine.

You feeling the way that you feel right now at your age is nothing new...my grandparents, my parents and my generation while we were your age also felt the same way that you do now back when we were your age....the only difference is that we didn't grow up in the era of social media back then to be able to commiserate with/feel sorry for ourselves/share our freakin'"feelings" with anonymous people wanting them to validate our feelings....we instead back then SUCKED IT UP, pulled up our own boot straps to roll with the changes in our lives.
Eh whereas now in the 21st century, our country's young "tolerant of ALL" generation NEED to have their "safe spaces" to go to when other people disagree with their "tolerant of all" progressive agenda. smh.

Welcome to the real world. There's so much to see, to try, to learn, about ourselves, and others..

That’s a perfect way of putting it actually..

Can so relate to this

Then never compare you with those you know or don't know

Your life path is for you to discover and develop. You are the one to build up your "Worth of Self" this role is yours for you to find out what works and does not.

That's why many practice daily meditation, then the mind chatter becomes calm, as silence becomes your normal state. Why, you run you down to you, you listen to your chatter about your life, you do this to you.

You can give you peace of mind, if you are willing to practice meditation.

You are your key to your better life. ....

Great analogy.. i can relate.

and you are scoring high I imagine? :)
