Editorial

My Grandfather died when I was 6 years old. Despite my short time with him, he was my favorite. He could do no wrong in my eyes, and I loved him dearly. I cried bitterly when he died. It was a time of innocence. It was only later that I learned of his faults. He wasn't the perfect man I thought he was; it was only later that I learned about them. But my memory of him never tarnished. I remembered what he did for me, the love he showed me. My father told me once, that my grandfather had asked him, "Why does he love me that much? , and my father said to his father, "Because he does." There was no real reason. It just was. It was a time of innocence. Must of us don't see that emotion anymore. We see fights with parents over every petty issue. We're not working hard enough. We're spending too much money. We're drinking too much. We don't appreciate what they do for us. And the rebuttals. Parents don't understand what life is like. They put too much pressure on us. How are we ever going to grow up if they keep harping on us? I can guarantee that practically every student on this campus recognizes what I've written in the last two paragraphs. But the thing that we have to realize is that none of this really matters. Despite the fights and the angry phone calls, eventually we cool down, take a step back, think it out, and come to a reasonable compromise.
