We always hear from our teenagers,
"What can we do? "Where can we go?"
The answer is this: "Go home, mow the lawn, wash the windows, learn to cook, get a job, visit the sick, study your lessons and after you have finished read a book. Your town does not owe you recreational facilities and your parents don't owe you fun. The world does not owe you a living, you owe the world something. You owe it your time, energy and talent so that no one will be at war, in sickness and lonely again. In other words grow up, stop being a cry baby, get out of your dream world and develop a backbone not a wishbone. Start behaving like a responsible person. You are important and you are needed. It's too late to sit around and wait for somebody to do something someday.

Someday is now and that somebody is
you!"
