Journey of today’s young generation has come to some other level and another meaning altogether. It has become fast and unnecessary thought of living your life in a different way to look cool. The life of youth has been hyped by the society itself.
Young generation lives with a philosophy that once you enter college you need to have a boyfriend/girlfriend. Firstly it is even termed incorrectly, we do have boyfriends and girlfriends since our childhood then what difference does it make during college days? Is it just the body touches you are looking for or do you feel low if people don’t see you with your partner? Honestly these days’ teenagers do not even understand the right meaning of intimacy and that has been degraded to the term boyfriend and girlfriend. They tend to have a misconception of being liked by someone to being loved by someone. Understanding the difference between like and love is way too far from the kids these days.
Why that is a relationship is meant only if it is between a girl and a boy? Then what is the term called if you are connected with your parents, friends, and siblings? Isn’t it that a relationship too? No, but this society lives in a myth that if you see two people of opposite sex, they are definitely in a relationship. Friends with the opposite sex cannot be continued after getting married because one would name it as an extra marital affair and consider as the topic of the town. Does one even know that to have any relation you need to have that intimacy between the two or many? Intimacy is something where you get connected to that person or people strong enough to understand them without saying and without even talking. Youth these days do not even know the concept of intimacy, for them it is just two bodies getting physical, the other needs of the person are not considered or even known to each other at that point. It is only a show off to the world and for that they feel it is greatest thing achieved in life. They think they are living high and nothing else is left to achieve.
Living high is all about living fast. Study, get graduated, having a girlfriend, get married, etc is what they think is life and that they have lived it all. Living a life is nothing but growing yourself in terms of knowledge, wisdom, and perishing your talent. It is not about completing the mundane rule of life that has been set up since generations. Live step by step and learn how to enjoy the every moment that has been lived by only you. Today’s anxiousness will only give you turbulence tomorrow. Get today right and face the contentedness, the best is that when you feel relaxed from your soul. It is when you feel that yes this is actually what you want and was waiting for. Love affairs can happen at the age of even forty. Why is it that people have to decide what age are you in to get married or to have an affair? Make your goals right up first. Get settled first, reach at a place where you are at harmony with your own self and then think about a partner. Until then of course you are into a relation with many people in life. Come out of the set rules of the society and live the life no one has lived before. We all try to grow up way too fast and tend to forget what we have missed whilst running the race to reach first.
PS: When you truly do not care what anyone thinks of you, you have reached a dangerously awesome level of relation with yourself.

Well said. It’s high time this generation is made to understand the reality.
