Although going through hardships may not necessarily be the most positive experience, the lessons people learn from the obstacles everyone goes through can be significantly fundamental to later success. I have been particularly fortunate in that I have not had to undergo substantial privations. One setback that will always be ingrained in my memory is a soccer game that I was playing during my freshman year of high school. It was the beginning of the year and I was transitioning from a big-bad eighth

If I was to discover that I were to be unwound based on a decision my parents had made, I will feel both betrayed and heartbroken. In this position, I would try to escape and to live a new life in a far place. Though if I could not either escape or go along with it, I would gather other unwinds and protest against the present laws of the Bill of Life, to make others understand that unwinding is awful. 2.

Heavy drug usage and wild behaviour gave the rock & roll generation a bad name but it certainly influenced the youth culture in many ways we still fell to this day.
