Today's Youth, Tomorrow's Leaders 

" You get in life what you have the courage to ask for. "

                                                                              -  Oprah Winfrey

Young people are a part of the bouquet of a society , but their roles are just as important as others , if not more. The youth of today , which are only buds, will soon bloom to be the centre of attraction . The values which are conveyed to the young ones , are the ones which will be carried forward to the generations to come. This is why it is important to properly shape the youth . Values of responsibility , sympathy , conviction , etc . should be taught . 

The society today is highly competitive , and such an environment hard work, conviction , determination and especially resilience are necessary . When  knocked down one should be able to pick oneself back up and not wallow in self pity . A person who perfectly portrays this quality is Oprah Winfrey . 

Oprah Winfrey was born to a poor maid , who left her I the care of Oprah's grandmother . Oprah had to go through many tough times , she had to wear dresses made out of potato sacks by her grandmother due to their penury . But she did not let this stop her from becoming one of the most influential women in the world . She rose through poverty , racism and physical abuse like that of a phoenix from ashes . Her hard work , determination , diligence and resilience are truly admirable and inspirational . 

The youth today should take inspiration from Oprah's life and not make their struggles an excuse for quitting but a motivation to strive for success .
