It seems that most young people want to be older. They have mistaken belief that older people have much freedom than them. However, from my point of view, young people may have more pleasure in their lives than the old in that they are physically stronger and have less responsibility than seniors. To begin with, youths are healthy enough to enjoy their lives. They can do whatever they want while elders cannot do because of their weaknesses. For example, my grand father absolutely liked climbing mountains when he was young. He has climbed many famous mountains in the world, such as the Himalayas and Mt. Everest. But after he is in his sixties, he cannot go to climbing because his joints and muscles are not as strong as he was young. These days, the only thing he could enjoy is just watching the film of mountains. In addition, young people has less obligations than elders. As people age, they get married, have child, and work for a job. By doing so, they cannot have much free time as they want. The best example of this is my elder sister. She is forty years old and she married five years ago. Now she has two children. Since she should take care of her children everyday and she is tied up much chores, she cannot take a rest even a week. She always talks to me, “Don’t waste your youth. Enjoy your life when you’re young.” In summary, young people have much chance to have a pleasure in their lives than the old because they have physical fitness and they are free from responsibility. Many people says that youth are wasted on the young. Young people may cherish their time.
