Life

When older, how will you refer to your youth? What will be the tone of your voice when you describe the way you were raised to your own children? Will you speak of the privileges you had that you never took for granted? What about the sacrifices your parents made that you never showed appreciation for? Will you tell them how naive you were and how it took you years to see the truth? Or will you mention how it was once you against the world and with maturity you learned how to accept people's love? Maybe you will give them comfort when you share with them that your were as lost and confused as they are now. Don't forget to tell them that it will get better. Because it did get better right? There is a magic promise the universe makes with us that it will always get better. Or so we tell ourselves. We may not be older yet, but one day, we are going to be expected to summarize our youth in the advice we give to the future youth. How will you describe yours?
