Read the title. That pretty much sums up what everyone else thinks of me. Turned 16 this year, live in a large house with lots of stuff, have extremely nice parents, a huge outdoor space and straight As in everything for my entire life, while working at about 5% of max capacity. I never have zits and don't have to use make-up because I'm naturally beautiful, and I am friends with almost every single person I know. I got into an esteemed private school for next year, my parents are paying for everything; the school, the apartment, the food, the furniture, and all other living expenses. We go abroad on vacation at least once a year.
This sounds really cool, right? I think so too. Actually, when I read what I've just written, I feel bad for complaining about my life. But the fact is, I am so fed up. This last year I've been getting more and more depressed, and there is nothing that I like doin anymore. I'm actually good at drawing and telling stories, and I used to read a lot, but now I am just too tired to do anything. I don't know what my life is missing, and that really pisses me off, because I feel that there's something missing. Nobody else notices, though. I think I spend more time crying that laughing nowadays, but when I'm around other people I unconsciously wear a mask that's so perfect it doesn't even have a single crack.

Don't live to just enjoy and reap benefits of resources you have (well, you're not enjoying them anymore anyway, like you said), instead become a wise person - think what you need to do to make your life meaningful, and productive. Find a good hobby. Study new subjects you've never deeply studied before... maybe something like Psychology, etc.? and try to implement your knowledge practically in productive stuff. Poke around! You can renew your life! Good luck.
