When I was growing up in Mississippi, my mom always used to tell me youth was wasted on the young. I always laughed; she never did, and a few years ago I mentioned that I'd finally figured out why not. That made her laugh.
- batch12 4y agoYeah, there are truths that most of us don't understand until we have experienced them. I was told to enjoy being young, sucks getting old, you won't be able to eat like that forever... yeah yeah. We all know we die from an early age, but most of us don't fully comprehend what that means until we are older and our youth is gone.
