Dear young people, you are the present and the future face of the
Church. Let your enthusiasm prevail all your life, even if burden of life is
heavy. Let no one influence your creativity, both in the Church and elsewhere.
You follow your conscience because your conscience will never let you down.
Negativities of this world can shrink your dreams, hence, be around positive
people or make friends with positive people and your life will be positive,
because positive people help your dream come true. Don’t be shy or fearful to
ask questions? It is by asking questions one becomes doubt-free and
consequently, one can help others who ask same questions.
The Apple founder Steve Jobs encouraged the young people at the Stanford
University with the following words, “Your time is limited, so don't waste it
living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with
the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions
drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow
your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to
become. Everything else is secondary.”
If
you have a dream follow it, if you don’t have a dream, dream because dreams
will help your destiny; your destiny will keep you focussed and eventually, you
will reach the summits, which you never imagined. Failures in life must make us
stronger and must help us to orient our vision towards success. If one dwells
in failures, there will be no time to think about success. Don’t live someone
else’s life; life of your parents, boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife,
children, Church community, etc. rather live your own dream. If you are
following someone else’s life, most certainly you will be someone else not
yourself. Sometimes, we have to take in the pinch of salt, because you are the
master of yourself. God has created you in His image and likeness, therefore,
God wants your to uphold that image and likeness of Himself.
