"Daydreams": a message to all present teenagers

3 Comments

Read Now
 
​The sky is so beautiful. The trees swinging in the wind are so soothing to see, like the nature of early evening can make me forget all my pains; the pain of being confined for about one and half years. School is closed and vaccations are forbidden. Even going out of my house has too many rules (wear masks, avoid crowds, sanitize hands, etc). If you want to be alive, don't go outside! You can die out of boredom, though! Corona is ruling over everything. It is taking away lives, happiness, mental peace, memorable times of school and what not. It is affecting our precious teenage time. The time to fly in our own sky, to dream of our own fantasy world, to make choices for one & only ourselves. Everyone says that we cannot daydream. But if daydream can give us the thing we want, then why not? I ope all of our daydreams come true, and we can get a teenage friendly world where we can express ourselves freely. We want to step forward to our youth bravely with confidence. Confidence to take the next step, confidence to change the world, and the confidence to make the world a better place for every living. We believe that we can do it. The whole world may be against us. But we are for ourselves. Good luck teenagers all over the world, and good luck for your daydreaming! Best of  luck with everything!

“The thing about a spiral is, if you follow it inward, it never actually ends. It just keeps tightening, infinitely.” 
​

These are some of the first words spoken in John Green’s Turtles All The Way Down. As I read them for the first time, I realized that this book was reading me. Before seeing those words, I had never before felt so heard by someone else.
