With the tragic deaths we see every day, I realize that we as teenagers wish our lives away. When we are younger than thirteen we wish to be a teenager. Then, the next part of our lives we wish away is the three years until we turn sixteen. We wanna be able to drive, and maybe just maybe have more freedom.Then we cannot wait until we turn eighteen. We think great we are finally adults. We do not realize once we are on our own we actually have to pay for anything we want. We want to play the lottery, vote, and buy cigarettes if we smoke. Then, the next step we want to reach is our twenty-first birthday, so we can "finally" drink. We don't seem to realize that it is a sort of wishing of our lives away.
As, we get older we think where has all the time gone. We wish we could have the time back. We think we should not have wished all that time away. As we get older, and time goes faster and faster, we want our youth back. We want to be able to easily do the same things we did as kids; we would also like to be able to not have all the stresses of bills and needs. As we get older and it seems death is getting closer we think of our regrets and want the life we wished away back. Then we die and there is no life left to wish away.
