Youth and the value of life

Content 7

Hey friends,

Young people have different values in their lives. Some of those values are the same and some of them are not. Some of the values young people have are:

• Education
• Money
• Parents
• Time
• Friends
• Discipline
• Fun
• Morality
• Goal
• Job
• Looks and beauty and so on

A person who values good health will avoid smoking, drinking and any behavior that will be harmful to her or his health. We can usually know what a person values based on their habits and behaviors. We can know that those who do things according to time and on time are those who value time. There are young people who go after what others value and tend to forget their own values, and there are those who change their values due to the influence of their families and surroundings.

Some of the values can still be changed based on age, experience, level of maturity, and one’s surroundings. For example:

• Due to misleading persuasion of friends, some young people give up on thing like education, a value they should dearly value, to go after unhealthy fun, something that they should not value.
• Such young people who have misleading values get onto wrong paths and they are consequently affected by problems such as health, education, social and economic problems.
• And it can finally get to the point where their goals and purpose of life are completely lost.

If young people continue to keep the right values in their lives, they will be able to make the right decisions which will be helpful and supportive for them.

Choose your values carefully in life and do not forget for a minute to try to live your best according to the values you choose!
