Always we
hear the cry from teenagers, 'what can we do, where can we
go?'
My answer is this: Go home, mow the lawn, wash the windows, learn
to cook, build a raft, get a job, visit the sick, study your
lessons and after you've finished, read a book. Your town
does not owe you recreational facilities and your parents do not
owe you fun. The world does not owe you a living, you
owe the world something. You owe it your time, energy and talent
so that no one will be at war, in sickness and lonely again. In
other words, grow up, stop being a cry baby, get out of your
dream world and develop a backbone not a wishbone. Start
behaving like a responsible person. You are important and
you are needed. It's too late to sit around and wait for
somebody to do something someday. Someday is now and that
somebody is you.
