Thoughts written down.

Lately,  I have been thinking about my life in general.  I recently graduated in May from college and now I have a degree.  I should feel accomplished for all the work I have put through the years of school.  However, am I really accomplished.  Probably  75 percent of the worlds population attends college today and that is viewed as normal.  I don't want to be viewed as vain, but seriously, over half the world is educated and even witht the degree I got it is still difficult for me to find a job.  I am looking, and applying, but I am truly afraid that I will be stuck at my deadend job five years from now, with a load of student debt and nothing to show for it except a few quick facts that I learned in my college classes.  I am quite sure there are hundreds if not thousands of other college graduates thinking the same thing at this very moment.  College isnt cheap, its pretty expensive and most of that money has to be borrowed.  Not all college students are a part of the 1 percent.  I'm certainly not.  In fact, people probably would consider me a poverty child.  No, I don't come for the ghetto nor did I have an especially hard life, but there have been struggles that my family and I have worked hard to get through.  I grew up on a farm.  Farming in this day and age isn't easy.  Struggles are everywhere in this world and when I think about all the things that go wrong, it depressing.  I would love to think of happier times, but I am beginning to understand that happier times are just covering up all the wrongs things about the world.  Everyday, every hour, every minute something could go wrong and it makes me both scared and wary.  What will become of this world?  I know this post after a year of not posting is depressing to think about, but I promise the next post I have will be more enlightening to everyone who actually takes time to read peoples thoughts and opinions.  Until then, I bid everyone a good evening.
