The young shall grow, a phrase that must be painted on the walls of the building of anyone that is expecting a child.

The young shall grow, a phrase that must be chanted by parents and guardians when they are in the presence of someone younger than them.

The young shall grow, a phrase that should be spoken by one to oneself, especially when in soberness.

The young shall grow, a repeating statement that should not cease to run through one's mind, when they are either planning to have a child or raise a child. A statement that is so prominent that no matter what happens at any given time in one's life, it has to be mentioned with fervour, like one's favourite artist or sports team.

What does the statement mean? It means you should not take your life for granted. It means you should not trade your life for anything. It means you should look beyond what you see and what you feel. It means you should be optimistic about the future. It means you shouldn't build castles in the sky, but at least build something tangible.

When one is young, one has energy, enthusiasm and ideas. However, the lack of experience makes it difficult for such persons to express their creativity and inventiveness. There are many things that only the young can do, and there are lots of problems that young minds can solve.

No matter how young one is at the moment, a time will certainly come when such a person will be of maturity. It's either happening now or in a few years to come but maturity is unavoidable and something we never escape from. With maturity, it means we will have to be responsible for our possible actions, come up with better ways to handle things and make better decisions among other things.

Mature persons will also have new sorts of issues and worries but one thing that doesn't change is that we are still human beings no matter how old we are. This means that mature people also have their own set of worries to deal with. The difference is that aside from the basic problems faced by all humans, mature people also have to confront their own personal demons.

It's the cycle of life. Everyone at some point in time grows from a kid to someone of advanced age. The same applies to businesses which at one point start small and gradually grow bigger.

This is one of the reasons why we can say that the young shall grow. It's a certainty that we cannot stop this cycle.

Whether you are a young kid with a dream or a business which has just started up, never forget that you shall grow in time. Don't let failure break you as giving up is not an option but rather a temporary cessation of progress towards your goal.

There certainly comes a season in a person's life when one has to grow. The same is true about nations. No matter how backward a nation or a person may seem, there will come a time when such will get to be at the forefront.

The same is true about our dear Nigeria. It has been a long while since Nigeria got to be an independent nation. Since then, people have shown their ability to grow and develop. The state of infrastructure in some parts of the country may not be as good as it could be but the truth is that what we have today is an improvement on what we had in the past. We are not there yet, but we are not where we used to be. Hopefully, the nation will grow to a state that we would all be pleased with.

You are right. We shouldn't leave life casually or take it for granted.
