Adolescence is a period of lifes beauty and freshness. Its a period when one is not yet a full grown-up but is not similar to childhood.
I met an adolescent girl one day. Meeting people of an opposite sex made her embarrassed. She sang a song in a soft and slightly audible voice. I listened to her song but acted otherwise. I knew she couldnt sing. Whats more she missed the tone. Being an adolescent girl, she had scarlet cheeks. Looking embarrassed, though, she managed to sing the whole song.
I didnt find her toneless voice ridiculous. On the other hand, I quietly cheered her on to finish the whole song. The song she sung intermittently expressed her inner feeling and emotion at the moment.
I believed being an adolescent girl taught her to sing that song.
