Teen Years: A Vital Stage In Our Lives

I’ve been going back and working on my adolescence these days.

• A stage when you are afraid of nothing, but of everything

• A stage when you want to be alone, but next to someone

• A stage when you are not afraid of death, though it scares

• A stage when a heartbreak aches so much that you don’t mind dying

• A stage when you want to be free, but you are not allowed

• A stage when you are urged to act like an adult, but you just don’t know how to

• A stage when hunger creeps up on you but being fat is a “penalty point.”

• A stage when you just want to be you, but don’t even know yourself much

• A stage when you want to leave your childhood behind, but would like your mom to hold you in her arms every single night

• A dreadfully criticized stage, but one that goes with you the rest of your life

🙂 Let’s protect our teenagers. Forget about myths, greenness or acne lotions, and let’s spread love, comprehension, hugs, freedom and more listening. 🙂

Let’s move forward in this beautiful and satisfying path which is educating our children with love, respect, and common sense.
