Life itself is full of lessons that one need to carefully observe with humility so he won't repeat the mistakes of others.
Hivedeb is not so old yet but I have gathered quite a good number of experience that time may not warrant me to share it all in just a blow but I will try my best to bring out one or more in this particular post.
Growing up one day I came across a young man ho said his nickname is experience, when I pressed a little to ask him what he meant by that he said "experience is the best teacher". On my part that didn't go down well with me so I added, "experience is the best teacher for fools because it is only a fool and proud person that will repeat safe same mistakes of another because he want to learn his own way". This young man was lost in speech because I didn't spare him even for a minute. At that time of discussion I was less than 20 years but that discussion is always fresh in my memory.
As I progressed with my life's endeavours it became clearer to me what Meant when I responded to that guy in that discussion. It's just for one to tell stories of how he was not able to continue is academic pursuit because she got unwanted pregnancy and growing up she had so much expectations that one day should come to reality then instead of having a good life and concentrating on your studies you say you also want to pass through same experience. That's too foolish to be mentioned.
To this one lesson I want to tell upcoming generation that their is time for everything and with patients they will achieve all but at the moment focus on your life goals.
On a daily basis I come across young girls and boys who act married more than the married some times I feel like running into them to encourage them to face their vision because a day will come they will seek for freedom that comes as a single they will not see it then they will be dancing around for divorce. There are lots of divorce cases around because many people don't understand the essence of marriage any long, they go in with the mentality of girl friend and boy friend with the taught that it will continue that way, when another phase changes they become so frustrated.
As a youth your most important goal should be to pursue your life goals and ambitions and not to look for a boy or a girl to keep you company. Just last weekend I encountered some youths too of the importance to face their goals so early. I was so happy because they are ones that are ready to listen and put what you are saying into action.
At other times, I go straight up to tell them that tea is still cheaper than pampers. It sounds so funny but it's true, as a married person many will tell you the importance of having more kids around you and my response to them is for them to supply me the pampers at least a dozen of it which is over hundred dollars. Hundred dollars is not a small money in my country and am not so ready to go through the traditional method but many younger ones don't put that into consideration.
Friends, face your goals as there is time for everything. I am so sure you will be happy you did because in a short while your achievements will be more than your age.
