A child enters school, he's parents all the way through school tell him he has to graduate with a good degree inorder to have a successful life. He reads hard knowing there is only one way to success, and that is through good education.
He studies and graduates with a good degree that guarantees him a good job which he gets, and starts a happy family.
This is the life very many ordinary families live.They will model you into what they want you to turn out to be.
They don't what to try the other side of life that is involved with failure.
A side which allows you to
-try out a talent you've got
-try out what you love to do with life
In this life you'll definately experience failure, experience rejection, experience regret. And they don't want you to go through that path. This is a life of being caged, a life of not living your true self

You all might have heard the track 'trapped'. Yes that's right, a hit from from Tupac Shakur from the album 2pacalypse Now, released in 1991, 5 years before Tupac got assasinated.
In this song, 2pac talks about people being restrained from the world by the communities they live in.
Checkout the lyrics from

The communities judge people that try living a life they won't accept. This affects people's thinking, that goes down to the children they'll produce, and the cycle goes on and on. People in turn get frightened of failure and the cage gets bigger, that they themselves won't try to get out however much they got a chance of escaping.

Experiencing all these negative sides is what makes life. Falling down several times and getting back up stronger is what makes a person's story in life. A story the next generation will want to read about to get encouraged to get back up whenever they fall, however deep the hardships that hit them get.
A life path with no mountains to climb and no valleys to figure out to jump is a one way path.

There are hurdles you have to meet in life to make a great story. These handcurfs in life are what make you hit the air with a fist with celebration after jumping them.
Lets not hold ourselves back, or hold the people around us back. We shall be denying them what life has in stock for them. Let them experience the hurdles and get broken and then try to rebuild.
Thats the story people will always read. A story of achieving and getting successful after series of falling down and getting back up.
Thankyou for endeavoring to read this post upto the very end.
