Tonight we are young!
Read while listening to this song [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Sv6dMFF_yts#!]Being young comes with so many perks, most of which probably a lot of us don't even acknowledge, because we're in such a hurry to grow up...or we're just afraid that making mistakes will get us under the judgemental eye of the society. We listen to the stories of that one crazy friend we have, that had the guts to do what he/she really wanted. We watch movies where the main characters do stuff and follow their dreams and we live vicariously those 1,5-2 hrs. But the movies, as well as stories, come to an end and you're back to your limited life...back to the well established routine. The thing is that life comes to an end as well, and no one knows when exactly...That's why:Be YOUNG! Be CRAZY! Shave your hair off, grow it back and cut it short again, get some piercings, take them off, buy a one way ticket to a country on a different continent, live there for a year or two, tell someone you love them- though they might not reply back, have sex in a public place, or two, kiss a total stranger, go skinny dipping, be the only one dancing in the bar, try weed, visit Latin America and try some more weed, go to a Bible camp though you're not religious, drink tequila -properly, pull all nighters when next morning you need to go to work, travel half the world to see someone you care for, trust a person you barely know, read Harry Potter even if you're too old to, take part in a stupid contest where you need to take all of your clothes off, and win it, learn Chinese, jump fully dressed into a swimming pool, get lost in a country where you dont know the language, do bungee jumping, go to karaoke though you know you suck at it, have a youtube video of you acting stupid, borrow money to your best friend though you yourself dont have any, make mistakes, laugh at them, follow your dreams however pathetic they might seem at first. Travel. Learn. Explore. be CRAZY!be YOUNG!!!!...cuz when you truly grow up, doing all the above mentioned might still be fun, but lets face it- it will never be as much fun as when you're young!And then, when your 'movie' is over, you'll know you did your best to not be bored while it lasted!!!!!Featured Image courtesy
