Look at these cute and crazy kids,

They’ll soon be monster, pouting, teens,

Ignoring what the world forbids,

Wishing they ‘so’ weren’t from OUR genes.

Wild hormones ensure counter-bids.

Their thinking brains are not, meanwhile,

Developed by the longest mile;

Give them the benefit of doubt.

In the end, they too, will work out,

After all, we did! – Let’s, just smile! 😇

Chapter 58 – Summary from the Wisdom of Sarah-Jayne Blakemore

The post has been inspired by If I Could Tell You Just One Thing by Richard Reed.

Over the 62 days, in July and August, my challenge is to share the learning from each of the 62 chapters; hopefully in a poem, but who knows?  Follow my progress with the #JustOneThing Tag

Happy to explore what you make of the post in the comments below? 🙂

I love words - they communicate so much and so little depending on how you use them. Come and explore my thoughts with me in this, my learning journal. View all posts by TheHiddenEdge
