I'm 18 and I'm still young.

to the young people, be strong.

I'm such a young soul, a young soul who has to take a lot of mature decisions at a young age. I have to take decisions about my current and my future life, like school, you've to choose what to study and depends on it you'll have your future job. You're not even sure if your decisions is wrong or right, you just have to decide because your decision will shape your entire future life. Isn't it weird? A person's mature life depends on an Eighteen years old kid's decision, word up.

They tell you what is wrong and what is right, they tell you what to eat, where to sit and what you should do about a lot of things when you're young, and one year later, when you're 'mature' enough as they say, you take your own decisions, wrong or right? who cares, as long as the results will only mess you up.

You've to choose the love of your life, the one who is going to live more than twenty years with you, the one who's going to share every moment with you and you've to decide if this person is right or wrong for you, your call.

You'll get into some relationships, real love or fake one you just have to go through it, you'll have a lot of heartbreaks, it is a normal thing for a teen but you're still young for all this pain. Pain changes people.

I'm eighteen, I'm still going through a lot of stuff to have more experience about everything, so when I take a decision, I hope it's right. I'm eighteen and I'm still young.

You have summed up reality in few paragraphs...I agree with you...I really liked the way you have written this...

Don't sweat this. You don't have the perspective, the best years are still ahead. An adult's life is rarely dependent on what he or she does as a teenager.

Those years were seriously some of the best times I can remember. Carefree and absolutely didn't give a damn, lol. Might as well have fun seen as how it only gets more serious as time ticks on. It's good to have a plan but the future will work itself out. This was a fun read although I feel incredibly old after saying this! Good work Rassoul:)

[Zephyr]

You are very right Rassoul:)
I can understand this pressure!
After all, eighteen isn't eighty!
But people behave as if 18 year olds have seen the world!
Worry about the moment we have and everything will sail smooth!
Great work Omar:)

Just left my teens and entered my 20s and lemme tell you something. Nothing changes xD now im just juggling between the pressure to behave like a mature adult and acting like Im still 12. I need to focus on my career but at the same time snuggle up in bed with some cheetos and watch netflix. Its alll very overwhelming. But what I feel is that we shouldnt worry about this things all the time. Just focus on the moment and make the most of it ^_^

"A person's mature life depends on an Eighteen years old kid's decision, word up." I agree, this is so weird but at the same time so true. Thank you for sharing :) keep writing :)
