It is the hour of the month now, a new month is about to ascend among us... and what a better way to start off the month than with a blizzard... "whoopie-doo"... Well, an assignment is due on Friday and I have to get it done with... So, today's post is gonna be short and sweet... Well, maybe not sweet but the short part is certainly in...Been kind off hectic past couple days, lots of work and studying as for the next three days will be occupied with exams and quiz and usual... Now that I have 3 cores in a semester, a little work comes a long way... Math, Science and Social... haihz...
Anyways, enough of all this studying "mambo-jambo"... Lets cut to the chase... A teenager's life today can be such a dream and for some, it is currently a living nightmare... With common tragedies which have come upon us in this hard times, parents try their hardest to live up to their children's needs... especially at the age of a teenager, the prime of life, the essential growth of oneself, physically, mentally, emotionally and psycologically, the foetus stage of a true man(woman)... It is the time where a person find oneself, good or bad... It is the stage of growth and puberty and the stage of a man forming a conscience, a self, an Ego... It is the stage where the child finally starts to experience life and slowly and progressively separate themselves from their parents(till a certain point)... Cruel and cold as it may sound, it is human nature...
These experiences, these growth, these changes are essential and crutial to the stages of becoming as what some might say "A True Person"... However, the way these experiences are attended to are up to the teenager him/herself... Most experiences are commemorated.. However, some experieces haunt the very living soul of a person... It just can't be helped in this modern world of everyday chaos and tragedies... For one, Divorces... A divorce can be hard on some teenagers, especially if it were a divorce of dispute... Abuse could be another example... Child abuse or even wife abuse, physical or mental, can be a major set abck in the life of a teenager... The list goes on and on, the sky is the limit... however, don't be misled, the commemorated experiences are not often forgotten... Like the time a teenager first gets his/her freedom of choice... How many of you teenagers there don't remember those days...The good old days... Well... This is basically the life of a teenager... Life has it's ups and downs, just a matter of how high and how low...
As usual, a couple of quotes from some more recognized people worthy of attention:
Don't laugh at a youth for his affectations; he is only trying on one face after another to find a face of his own. (Logan Pearsell Smith)
The best substitute for experience is being sixteen. (Raymond Duncan)
Adolescents are not monsters. They are just people trying to learn how to make it among the adults in the world, who are probably not so sure themselves. (Virginia Satir)
