The State Of The World
The state of the world has me extremely anxious and in a nervous wreck. I'm 20 right now & people around the world are being oppressed, corruption is everywhere. I'm scared. I'm not ready to meet my God yet.
It seems as everything is just going downhill. I'm scared for my future. I'm scared of the Afterlife. The fall/winter seasons are approaching quickly and it's going to take a huge toll on my mood. Everytime I hear about more terrible things happening in the news around the world, I just feel hopeless for the future. It saddens me. Will I marry? Will I have children? Will I get to become a better person?
This year has been very very hard for me. I've been through a lot of things but Im hanging in there. I just pray God protects my family and I & my friends. I can't stop worrying!
If you're reading this, may God bless you and your family and may He protect and guide you and your family.

Hello there, I'm sorry to hear you've been so worried about the state of our world. Yes, many terrible things have been happening, and many people have been feeling just like you. 🙁 The future can be scary to think about right now.
There is still hope, however, because there is still goodness and kindness out there. Everyday, babies are still being born, strangers are still reaching out to help one another (just like this community has always been happy to), and people just like you are staying afloat despite everything that's been happening. We as humans may be vulnerable, but we are also resilient and strong, capable of learning from our mistakes.
You are only 20, you have an entire life ahead of you. Regardless of the future you have, don't forget to appreciate the present! You can choose to focus on the things that are making you happy now, instead of the things that worry you. The sun shines throughout the seasons, and life goes on. It might be really scary right now, but I have fait that you will get through this. You are courageous and capable, two qualities that have taken many people far in life, so don't discount yourself ❤️ You'll get there 😊 God will be with you always
