Teenagers
A lot of teenagers suffer from deviation and bad behaviors like smoking, following a fashionable lifestyle, watching bad films, addiction to drugs, staying awake till late at night and so on.
They fall into such a hopeless situation for the following reasons:
First, the families don't seem to properly care for their children.
Second, many factors have their influence on them, such as lack of trust of their family members, bad friends, a blind imitation of the western lifestyle and the waning of faith in their heart.
We should help them and try our best to teach them the moral lessons.
Suggestions to help them to solve their problems are as follows:
We should take proper care of them. They should be guided how to choose good friends, watch good programs, listen to Islamic lectures and read interesting and beneficial books.

You'll never be erased
Oh heart, Oh heart
Fight back tears and never beseech
Those who bring blood to your eyes,
Leave them floundering,
Let days make them,
With their nights wandering
For everlasting relations,
Have patience,
Sweet time is coming.
You'll never be erased
Oh heart, Oh heart,
Fight back tears and never beseech
Those who bring blood to your eyes,
Whatever my patience costs
However my resistance weakens,
My heart has been still,
Following my spell.
You'll never be erased
Oh heart, Oh heart,
Fight back tears and never beseech
Those who bring blood to your eyes,
For your intimacy,
Days are approaching,
For your affection,
My heart is unfolding,
To you a boundless ambition,
Be assured,
You'll never be erased.

Within My Note of Memories
Within my note of memories
Are special thoughts of you
And all the lovely things
You often spoke to me.

They'll stick in my mind for good.
As I turn over the pages
To recall each single thought
I realize the pleasure
That seeing you has always to me brought.

Four years have rapidly passed
To bring us to this day
When I present these heartfelt words
I never thought I'd have to say one day.

For yesterday is already gone
Today is right away
And tomorrow is a long run

Let's live for the goals
And not for fun
For completing the long run
Let all your cherished dreams
Be unfailingly fulfilled.

Walk through the highway of your life
With your heads held high
Be true to yourself
And sincere enough to our nation
Just as your superiors want you to be.

Indeed, the greatest pain in life
Is not so much to die,
Rather to say 'goodbye'
How long can one linger?
How long can one cry?

Remember:
Each one of you has a role , a part to play
In this great drama of life
So:
Play it well and also strive
To be still better than what you've been.
