Why is the youth of today so full of sadness? Why are social networks overflowing with words that cry out for help and song lyrics expressing depression? Why do we weep for our summer and drag ourselves through the week to every weekend?
We are broken because we aren't free, we are stuck chasing "the dream" fed to us, get good grades and read lifeless books because they will get you to college were you a free to be happy, but wait focus in college because a job is necessary for happiness, get your job and get your wife and pay your taxes because you are stuck here and your youth has abandoned you.
We are children who are meant to be learning trough our OWN experiences, not being force fed the overdone reused description of adventure. We need our own stories, our own adventures, our own mistakes. How does one acquire life experience and originality when our most impressionable years are signed away to someone else?
We've had our wings cut and feet shackled and we are stuck. But don't be discouraged, because the year is ending and summer will save us.
Make a pact that you will be different, you will have adventures and scars and stories to tell. You will have a life that is your own, forget those who try to stand in your way. Be different, be happy.
Summer is coming
