How do your Teenage Years shape you?

Day 390 of Des McCabe's Personal Development Exercises

TEENAGE YEARS

When I was fifteen,
the teachers shouted at me,
for daydreaming and  looking out
of the window.  I only scraped
a pass  in a few subjects.
 
Every day now,
I sit quietly
and daydream.
 
When I was sixteen,
I wrote a book of song lyrics.
Teenage love and
aspirational words.
I never shared them.
 
Every day now,
I write  new words
for all to see.
 
When I was seventeen,
I created my first business idea
and bought a candle making kit
which came in a box.
It never got off the kitchen table.
 
Every day now,
I light a candle
which sits on a little table.
 
When I was eighteen,
I decided to become a priest
and go off to Africa
and help the poor.
I never made it.
 
Every day now,
I try to build
a world of kindness.
