"Youth..." truly is, wasted upon the young. We need to start developing a relationship with GOD, seeking his guidance, and living lives of full obedience to HIM much sooner than our society, and the multitude of microcosms it consists of encourage us to--if they do at all.
Our society does not foster true “well- rounded,” personal development. In contrast it focuses upon, and emphasizes the superficial attaining of materialistic possessions, prestige and titles, rather than becoming people of substance and character, i.e., attaining a foundation of righteous character upon which to stand upon.
This can only be derived from living a life fully and sincerely devoted to JEHOVAH-GOD, and HIS precepts and commandments found within the Bible, not resulting from our feelings and thoughts, or society’s mores or customs or philosophy.
Paraphrase of Bernard Shaw quote: “Youth is wasted upon the young.”
