As teenagers, we are going through the most beautiful period of our lifetime. Yet youth is not merely a period of time, but a state of mind. If we compare our childhood to the spring of a year, then youth must be the most energetic season-----summer. For all of us, every minute and second counts in this wonderful season. And while we enjoy ourselves, we should bear in mind the responsibility of youth.
Firstly, we should remember that honesty is always the most important character throughout our lifetime. If we choose to make friends with liars, we will have to live life in the endless darkness of crime and guilt. On the contrary, if we stick to honesty and always keep our promise, we will live a bright life in the warm sunshine of happiness and eudemonia. So be honest to your friends as well as the strangers, and enjoy the fragrance of trust.
Secondly, kindness is also among treasurable characters for all of us. Whether we are living a rich or poor life, we should be grateful for all we possess. Maybe we do not have large houses to live in; neither do we have enough money to buy the delicious food. But thank goodness, we have beloved family. We have lovely pets. And we have truly friendship. Remember that money is something, but not everything. As long as we have a kind heart and a grateful attitude towards life, we will live with no regret, regardless of our wealth or reputation. So be kind-hearted to all the creatures, and you’ll live life to the fullest.
Thirdly, the responsibility of youth is to let our dream fly high. We are learning and growing up not only for the good of ourselves, but also for the development of the whole society. We have inherited wonderful cultures and heritages from our ancestors. And now it is our turn to carry on making progress to match the glorious past. It's a tough job, but it is worthy that we devote ourselves to this great improvement.
Most importantly, the responsibility of youth is to ensure that we have grown powerful enough to be responsible for ourselves and for the world.
