Youth - the wonderful phase of a person's life. The phase that opens the doors for many new opportunities and beginnings. A phase when used to it's finest, has the potential to turn a person's life into a treasure. But also into a dark hole if mislead or not guided properly.
13-30 years of age is usually considered as youth. This is the time when the internal activity of an individual is at it's maximum. A lot of changes happen inside the body and our perception is enhanced. It is during this time that one has to ensure they blossom in the right way. Failing to do so often brings immense suffering to the life of that person. This is the reason why, any situation that never bothered you or which you never thought would affect you during childhood, shows a whole new affect if the same happens during youth.
Human mind is the most sophisticated machine available to mankind but unfortunately not everyone knows it's entirety. People struggle immensely on a daily basis just to handle their own thoughts and emotions. This being the case, the entirety and power of the mind cannot be known and mastered. But life happens around us in a dynamic pattern and unless one is fully aware of oneself, they cannot enjoy it's beauty!
From the above information, we can clearly tell that there is a serious imbalance in the way life happens around us and the way we have prepared to live it. This imbalance often leads to depression, anxiety and numerous other mental health issues.
The solution is simple, to increase self awareness but to do that is not as easy as we say. One has to have the will to break down his/her own internal barriers. The better alternative people choose is by finding an addiction. The intention would never be to get addicted but to escape and eventually ends up in addiction. This is not the only reason why people get into addictions. There are other reasons like -
1. Bad influence: be it from a stranger, friends or family.
2. Social cultures: people think it is cool to drink and smoke.
3. Environment: the kind of family background a person is growing up and etc..
Youth is the most productive time in a person's life. It is up to oneself to decide what they want to do while alive and to do anything worthwhile of time, youthfulness is a wonderful opportunity. Grab it, use it and manifest what you want.
