My Relationship With Young People

I am encouraged by the young people I know. Younger generations are smart, creative, and passionate. They care about what is right. They want to make a difference.

As I grow older, I want to consider my responsibility toward younger generations. I want to have the right attitude towards them. I want to be a help to them, not a burden. Here are some things I want to do.

Young people see the world differently, and I want to learn from them. Maybe, they see something that I have missed.

I want to be a person they can trust. I want to be approachable, and I want them to feel like they can discuss anything with me.

I want them to know that I respect them. I do not look down upon them. I do not see them as being inferior. They have something to offer.

I want to share my wisdom with them. I want to share things that will be helpful to them. I want to be open about mistakes I have made so they can learn from them.

I want to be a mentor and friend to them. My relationship with younger people should not be one-sided. I want to be a blessing to them as they bless me.
