When the world was young, it thought the sun revolved around it. Everything revolved around it. But as the world grew older, it discovered that it was the other way around. The world realized that it was just a tiny speck in the middle of the vast universe.
I think that just sums up how it goes for the youth and the grown ups. Rebellion and faking independence are too easy. Accepting responsibility and owning up to your actions are rather underrated.
The young put too much glamour in anarchy and deconstruction. But what they don’t realize that before you can destroy, you must first learn how to create. And creation requires mastery and grace, which sadly, the youth will never have.
