Precious Life
Life
is precious. It is the most precious gift we have received from our creator.
You have just one life, make the best of it, expressions of this kind are often
used to make one understand the significance and preciousness of life. Therefore,
each and every person tries to live his life to the full here on earth. He
searches for means that could help him in his adventure. But in this bargain,
he makes many compromises, mistakes and he gets caught up in the web of life.
He becomes slave of his own makings. He finds himself in the clutches of
bondage. Hence, he asks, what is to be free? What is freedom? Therefore, this
paper has led me to deal with true meaning of freedom.
Physical Development
During
adolescence physical changes take place in the human body. This process is
caused by puberty. For females puberty normally begins with the menstruation
and for males with the development of pubic hair. Hormones released by the pituitary gland stimulate puberty this process
is called releasing sex hormones. Young person’s sex drive is kicked off by the
growth.
Young people use public spaces just
as much as anyone else, if not more. And yet, too often young people, or young
adults between the ages of 12 to 25, are not included in the process of Place
making and end up “loitering” in other spaces. Some communities glare upon
loitering, which can create a negative image for young people and just
contributes to the stigma surrounding them, especially those who are at risk.
By being actively engaged in the creation of youth-friendly spaces, young
people can feel like they have investment in their community and they can
develop a strong sense of ownership in these places.
Adolescent Development
We have all been through different
experiences, events and influences collected through life; these make us the
people we are. Experiences gain during adolescence is very major. No two young people are the same. Everyone is unique, created and
valued by God. The purpose here in not to generalize the normal adolescent
experience, but to help us understand the effects and implications of this
development on each individual.
Need for Understanding
To
work for youth and to relate with them we must understand them in all areas,
especially physically, psychologically, intellectually and spiritually.
Understanding youth is very difficult. We have to evaluate them from their
point of view and their perception.
Call Today
Young people are struggling in record numbers to
find work, leave home, and start a family. Therefore Youth today has to give heed to their problems and struggles.
They have to reach out their cry to this world filed with corruption and reach
people. It is the call for today’s youth to voice out and grab their goals.
Adult Influence
We have people who influence us in various
ways. Some influence through their words some with their actions and some with
their behavior. We have seen and heard about many well-known people in the
world; they too were influenced by someone; which inspired them to reach their
goal. Influence of others creates in us the energy to work hard to achieve our
aim in life. Well known people like Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, Bill
Gates, Steve Jobs, Barack Obama etc. are the leading people who have given
boost to the young to achieve their aims in life. Adults play an important role in the life
of a young person. They use their knowledge and skills to help guide a young
person in a positive direction. Adults are concerned about the development of
young people.
