“A Different Dimension In Order To Connect With the Reality”
Education, Employment, Civic Engagement and Migration are Major Issues Concerning Youth
in Asian countries. If young minds develop & training themself to face as well as withstand these
four drastically evolving challenge they can reach a meaningful life. They climb into the higher
social status, and they will climb in their economically status and what not?
Governments, Non-Government and research based Organization are looking into various
factors which affects these four factors of current generation’s as growth indicators. While
summarizing these development strategy youngster must be also aware of the poisonous process
which there are about to participate. Comparing to previous generation the social system and
social structure are evolving too fast where there is less time for adaptation. This makes youth
often remain in a vulnerable situation and lack the requisite knowledge and skills to adapt to the
changing economic and social environment.
In other dimension, a particular group who keeps experiencing Long-term unemployment leads
to a wide range of social ills to which young people are susceptible such as delinquency and
substance abuse, and often feeds political unrest and violence. In addition, exacerbating the
situation are very limited knowledge and poor access to health services related to the prevention
of HIV infection, drug use and other health risks, particularly among those who are out-of-school
in rural areas.
Similar perspective also makes me to think how other social institution tries to tackle evolving
social problems. Religious Institution, Traditional Institution and Tribal Institution are potential
enough to resolve the issues quicker than any other institution which leads these institution based
communities to climb the social ladder in a better speed. But the question of Youthful life among
young minds remains unanswered.
Since the time of early humans, the solution were simple to all complex problems. In the same
manner we can also try to tackle problems of current generation. Let’s imagine that you brought
your favorite car this week and started using it every day. So whenever you cross a speed breaker
you slowdown the car and again raise the speed in an empty road. What just happened? You
handle the brake properly whenever it’s necessary, you took care of the car’s suspension, parts of
the car was protected, and passengers were comfortable. If you do thing same things over and
over the car will be function good for many years, if not then the life of the car will be reduced to
few years. There were lot of things happening when you applied break. Similar to this
application, life is also functioning is a same manner.
It’s all about applying break in your life whenever you feel negative about your day/ week and
start to balance various things. Balancing provides time and space to unlearn and relearn where
you can rediscover solution to problems. Once we attain this ability to apply break and balance
in your life, Youthfulness with take birth. It will slowly change your life with enormous amount
of youthfulness. And when you practice this from a young age we can master it.
