This is the fundamental lesson here, as some cry, as teens complain in what is the never ending land of complaints.
Sometimes the nagging will never stop. Sometimes the voices will cease and will not nagg. Sometimes the hands will rise and will smack your face like a fist. Sometimes your face will release sorrow.
Sometimes, Teen Life is Cruel.
Eventually we will dig ourselves out of the land of never ending complaints. We rebuild our personality and attitude. And we go on. This is the price of being a teen.
Sometimes, Teen Life is Cruel, and you have no choice but to accept it. And when it was your turn, you had to deal about being a teen.
But what if it was your turn again to be a teen?
Surely some are hopeless, peer pressure damaged teens can be forgiven for thinking it is always it turn, surely the rest of us watching from afar, experiencing the devastation of teen life from the comfort of the media and society, are tempted to believe the same thing.
Sometimes Teen Life is cruel. To look for teens that are filled with the thoughts of bullying of each other. Many teens get involved in teen pressure and many die by giving in like doing something stupid that will end up getting you killed, somehow. For teens this seems to never end, even after in adulthood.
But what else are you going to do? As the media shows that teens are now-it-alls and some drug atics. Even less have have we the ability to answer the question that burns the moment: Why do teens think their life is so cruel?
We are hold back by our limitation, so we can only do what we always do, only sit there and watch their lives develop. Go on. Live your adult lives as teens live in cruel.
Luis, this is intense. You are right in that teens have to battle a sterotype everyday. There is racism, sexism, etc, but there is also agism and teens are victimized by it often.
ReplyDeleteLet me tell you though, that adult life isn't any less cruel, it's just cruel in different ways. As an adult, I remember how miserable being a teen could be at times. I remember the bullyinig, I remember the feeling of anger mixed with helplessness. Now that I'm adult I want to tell teens about it, to guide them, help them, so that their lives aren't so cruel, but because I am an adult, teens don't want to listen to me.
It's ironic.
This is very true we have challenges we face everyday! Like bullying and stereotyping and all that! This post is cool!
