The full bloom of womanhood
Everyone can picture the start of spring when there is a promise of a new season and the dreary winter has faded away into an old memory. You can still see the beauty of new flowers. It is a beautiful sight! And this is what the start of womanhood is like but only if you go the right way. Womanhood is like a flower, but before the flower blooms lovely and bright it must be cared for in till the time is right for the flower to bloom. This is the same as girlhood or teenage hood as we call it, this is a time to care for the flower so that when the time has come it will blossom into a beautiful flower. Teenage hood is a wonderfull time, where girls are starting to get responsibility and are starting to notice the boys, they are becoming more involved in the community and are starting to hang out more with there friends. It is an exciting time when girls start to realise they are not little girls now but are starting to grow up and become a women. It is an exciting time but also a scary time as the girls start to develop.
I would not call these people, teen girls no I would call them young women, they are not completely grown up but they are not children either many call them teens but I do not. The word teens and the teen years sound so lazy they sound like the teen years are not important and that the teen years are for having fun. But this is not true. The teens years are about preparing yourself for the responsibility's and problems of the world. You wouldn't hire a person to be a doctor if the person didn't have any training would you?, no you would prepare the person to become a doctor first then hire that person. These teen years are your training. The teen years are serious! whatever you do and act and say will be imprinted and build your character for the rest of your life! now I am not saying the teen years are just work, no teens years can have fun too. It just the fun people say today is not the fun that is right.
The world says that teens can have fun and then settle down later, what is there type of fun? well most of there fun is drugs and drinking and boyfriends and there fun is giving you a door to temptations. This is not preparing you no its stopping you from becoming the best young women you can be. But I know it's hard, those who do not go on purpose or those who are forbidden to go are called names and left out of everyone's party lives. And there are also those times when your parents tell you a firm no and you wish you could yell at them. They don't understand how hard it is, they don't want you to have fun, parents are not fair. but I'm sorry to tell you but all those things you think about your parents are most likely not true. Your parents most likely only want what's best for you, and in years time you will be glade they said no to all those late night parties and cute boys.
It may not seem fair, but I will tell you those who go to parties and have lots of boyfriends are opening a door to hurt, those flowers that bloom to early die early. Be careful to not bloom to soon, in the end after lots of waiting and watching others have fun, you will see that you had a better and longer run then all those who have bloomed early. WAIT TILL YOUR FULL BLOOM. YOU WILL BE GALDE YOU DID!
