you sound very much like me when i was your age,im 48 do not worry about tomorrow,stay in today,tomorrow has worries of its own.this is a bible verse that i live by,I put my hope and trust in God.situations and life will always have troubles honey,there will always be things to fear and things to be grateful about.I was also homeless once,it made me stronger and grateful and gave me compassion for others who are in the struggle,life is in the struggle,but God will give you hope,and a future.All I can offer u is trust God honey,pray,pray,pray.I still am learning to trust God,life has not always been kind to me,but I have to decide to be grateful and kind regardless of what has happened.My youngest child was born with a very rare syndrome,u want to talk about unfair,she did nothing to deserve how she was born,she also has autism and cannot speak and she is almost 18,but u know what she loves to worship God and dance at home and at church.So you are not a victim use all God has given you as far as the ability to use your brain,eyes,mouth,and your 2 arms and legs,be grateful for what u have rather then what u don't have.And remember u can make a difference for u and the rest of the world.Do not walk this life feeling bad for yourself,as you were blessed simply because God decided to make such a beautiful one of a kind creation and that was u.I will pray for u and your mom,also i was a single mother for 16 years,and it was not always easy but God never let us go hungry or homeless.Shalom

A wise man once said "90% of the things I have worried about never actually happened". If you think about it, it really is true most of the things we stress over never occur or if they do not to the extent we thought they would.
Get out a pen and paper and work through this as an exersice:
1. Analyse your problems
2. Think about the worst things that could happen
3. Come up with a plan to minimize those things
4. Calmly go about implementing that plan
Life has it's ups and downs and you have to be resilient to succeed. Take full responsibility for improving your situation, no one is going to do it for you.
"Life is like diamonds on the footpath, you just have to bend down and pick them up". Hang in there Smartie, you'll make it.

Just think it can always suck more, think about it you could have been in a flood lost all money you have, you car could flood and u could been stranded there, or something worse. try getting a part time job to help your mom out, or do your very BEST in school so you can get a scholarship for college or something. but remember all of us have problems and god is doing this for a reason. also try to not go over phone bill or something, use less electricity sell stuff on ebay. do your very best and remember to be nice and caring and maybe god will reward you. remember everything happens for a reason.

Catholics are the original followers of Jesus Christ. Just the Facts. Know History. Discover Truth. Know Jesus Christ. To even contemplate that Catholics are not the original faith community of Jesus Christ is unfathomable in this modern age of education. How can you be Christian without following the fullness of Faith that Jesus our Lord established Himself?

If you are in a good church, you need to talk to your pastor/ youth pastor about your situation. They will help you. If you aren't the church going type, talk to some friends about it. Just don't keep it all in. It will eat you alive if you do.
