Behind the SCENEs!!

Youth is a time of rapid change, from day to day and moment to moment. It can also be a time of confusion. You may feel as if you are standing alone in a wasteland or on a battlefield. Sometimes you may think you can't believe in anyone, that no one loves you, or even that you have no reason to live.

Grades at school are probably not your only worries. You may have problems at home, with money or health, with how you feel about your looks, with members of the opposite sex, or with friends. From feeling confident and upbeat one moment, you may be overwhelmed with insecurity, frustration or apathy the next.

You may have fundamental questions about yourself and your identity: Who am I? What should I do with my life?

The most important thing is not to give up on yourself when you are young, giving in to negativity. Don't compare yourself with others. Be true to who you are and try to cherish and feel content with your own irreplaceable life. Even if you're sometimes laughed at, or people let you down, keep going forward and never let yourself be defeated.

A smooth, easy life in which everything goes your way may seem great, but you won't be able to develop your character if everything always works out according to plan. You may even become spoiled - a person who can't think about others and who is no help when things get tough.

If your parents are poor or lacking education, or they're always quarrelling with each other, try not to think yourself unlucky. This is a truly human situation which will help you develop as a person.

There is no such thing as a whole life of smooth sailing. Therefore, you do yourself a favor by taking on difficult challenges, forging and strengthening yourself in your youth, while you're healthy and strong.

Rather than a life of blank pages, it's better to live a life crammed full of memories of struggles and wonderfully varied experiences. Not to make waves, not to leave behind any history, but just to grow old and die, is a sad way to live.

Even if you feel powerless, that it is difficult to believe in yourself, please try not to be easily swayed by the views of others, and hold true to what you know is right. Try to believe in yourself. Confront and challenge every situation with the full force of your character.

It all comes down to you. I hope you won't rely on others or wait for them to do something. Try to develop such a strong sense of responsibility that you can stand up to the fiercest storms, confidently proclaiming, "I'll do it. Just watch me!" Please confront reality, look it squarely in the face, and with guts, wisdom and strength, challenge everything that lies ahead of you.
