Let's get honest here; people are stupid. Teenagers are stupid. School is stupid. Our peers are just plain stupid. No, I'm not mad at society or humanity, I'm simply putting the facts out for everyone to look at. It is human nature to be stupid.
Now, what does this have to do with our high school experience, you may ask? Everything.
We like to walk around thinking that life will be okay or you're too invisible for people to judge you. But the reality is, no one is invisible. You're only as see though as you make yourself but never transparent.
You may think that humanity is too stupid to change, that they'll see right through you no matter what, that being a teen or still a high school student will all of a sudden lessen your effect on the world; I got a news flash for you: it starts now. It starts today.
I'm a writer. I'm a sophomore in high school. I'm still a kid. But I plan to inspire the world, kid or not. You will always be too young if you keep telling yourself that. Always just one more step to invisible if you see yourself that way. YOU are here for a reason.
Thomas Edison was one man. George Washington was one man. Susan B. Anthony, Jane Austin, Charles Dickens, Albert Einstein, John Wilkes Booth, etc, were all just one person and they influenced the world, whether in a good way or a bad one, they changed humanity. Some of them have maybe even made us a little less stupid.
So my 4th instruction today is:
#4: Life is what you make of it. Don't let your age, your homework, human stupidity, or anyone change that(Yes, you still have to do your homework). YOU can make this world a better place. YOU could go down in history. YOU are tomorrow, if you'll stop looking in the mirror and seeing nothing worth while. YOU are NOT invisible, so go out and sing it to the world, cause you only live once.
