Hey Chris
Very glad you realize there is room for improvement in this world. That's a good first step.
Remember the admonishion of St. Paul to "Fight the Good Fight."
It doesn't say Fight or Fight Good, or Fight the Fight, but "Fight the Good Fight".

First, a few more years you will be old enough to vote. Start preparing now. Learn about what is happening in your neighborhood, your city. Look for candidates that you think might make a difference and then get your little butt out there to help them.
Look at your self. Try to figure out what you can change about Chris that my make things better. Change them. Only YOU can do that.
Fall in love. Trust me on this, the horror of genocide pales to insignificance when compared to the pain and suffering of the first great love.
Most of all, understand the difference between you, your feeling, the world and how the world appears.
The children sat around the fire
huddled together in fear,
as the old man told tales of ghosts.
And,
deep in their wide eyes,
I saw a smile sparkle.
