Pain is the mark of youth, but it is not the end. Those struggles, tears, and misses eventually became the nutrients for growth. They each crossed the mud and walked into the sunshine with their scars. Some stayed with each other, some let go, and some became better versions of themselves - just like the summer night wind blew away the heat, leaving behind a gentle aftertaste.
Purpose: Focusing on the pain and struggle caused by family of origin and class differences in youth, showing young people breaking free from constraints and self-salvation in the confusion and collision, turning suffering into nutrients for growth, either reconciling with others, or embracing a better self, and writing about the youthful transformation and life resilience in the afterglow of summer.
