Teenagers. The mere mention of the word often prompts the exasperated sighs of parents who are currently battling with an adolescent of their own. Anybody who has any sort of dealings with teenagers is quick to comment on how awfully disrespectful and lazy the next generation acts. "They think that they know everything there is to know." That sums up the basic idea of the opinions of most adults towards teenagers.
So, one may ask, what could be your point in writing this article? Isn't this supposed to be an introductory article? Well, the point of the seemingly irrelevant paragraph that introduces the blog is to show all the readers a little taste of the variety of issues that will be covered here on The Eye. The Eye will, I hope, serve to open the eyes of many a reader here. Throughout my day I will be keeping my eyes and ears open to see and hear issues and questions that unfold around me; I will then attempt to answer the questions while giving my faithful readers a chance to think about and respond to these questions in their own unique way.
Of course, some of the issues I will cover will require more thought and consideration than one post can provide. Sometimes I will flip-flop between issues in case one needs that extra breathing room. When you step into this blog, you must be prepared for anything and everything.
I will continue my thoughts on teenagers in the next post, but until then consider something. No matter how small your thoughts and opinions may seem to the world, these things define who you are as a person. Never forget that you should form your own opinions about issues and hold tight to them.
Straight from The Eye,
Sierra
