Young

“So let’s just stay in the moment, smoke some weed, Drink some wine, Reminisce talk some shit forever young is in your mind, Leave a mark that can’t erase neither space nor time, So when the director yells cut, I’ll be fine, I’m forever young...” Forever Young by Jay-Z ft Mr. Hudson

I’m still a kid in the eyes of my grandma. I’m still the baby in the eyes of my mother and I can tell you I know why. It’s not because I’m their kid and they will always see me as a child, it’s because I have not seen the world yet. 20 years is nothing compare to what they have been through, what their eyes have witness. My two eyes are still young and we still struggling to stay awake to see every little thing we need to see. Anything bad that happens, anything bad that comes our way and we rethink everything, we give up and give the world our back but that shouldn’t be how we handle things. We fall in love, we lose a person, we cry, we get mad, we fight and with that we feel the world is coming down on us that we are at the end of the line waiting for the world to end but the world is not ending. The world is far from over; we are just starting at the door to something much more. Those little kisses, those summer loves, that’s just the gas we need to keep on going. We get fired from a job but that doesn’t mean we should stop working, or looking for a job, that is just more ammunition for the future. We fall and cut our legs and knees but we don’t care, we stand up and keep on running. We have a long way to go to shed that young image but we cannot think for a second the world will end when something bad comes our way, which is just a sign that tells us to get ready for what lays ahead. We are young and the world is just opening its door for us. We have to enter the room and keep on opening doors.
