Being “young”

Everyone has gone through life

And just because I’m older then you 
Doesn’t mean I’m better then you 
Nor does it mean I’m smarter then you. 
I have chosen paths that have lead me 
to where I stand right now
And so have you.

We all learn in a different way and the only scale we can compare it to
Is this short little thing called life

Whether I’m shorter, younger, dumber, smarter or more sophisticated 
Doesn’t mean I have learned all my life lessons 

So next time a person tells me 
I’m dumb because I’m young 
It’s not true.
Iv just walked a different path 
And so have you 
So respect the fact that I’m young
But don’t try to define me by that.
