Turning eighteen - Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Buffy Summers - 100 words)cmk418March 3 2018, 04:07:30 UTC
(For some reason, I thought of the BtVS episode with the Cruciamentum & how young people are generally treated by the establishment)
It’s your eighteenth birthday. Today you are officially considered an adult. You can vote, make choices, change the status quo. You’re at that place where the rest of the world no longer trusts you and will do everything in its power- poison your mind, hit you when you’re weak- to destroy the fire that burns inside of you. You have to stay vigilant, to go inside yourself and use everything that you have in order to survive. They cannot quiet your voice. You’re stronger than they realize.
And in the end, you’ll be the one they look to for hope.
