The Reason that High School Social Structures Disintegrate

Think back to your high school days. All of the social dynamics have likely changed. The nerds aren’t the nerds any more. The cool kids aren’t cool anymore and the jocks aren’t jocks, either. 

Life is long. 

When you’re in high school, these social dynamics feel like gospel. For better or worse, the assumption is that you plight (for better or worse) is cemented and true as death and taxes. 

What we can learn from this is that life is long and whatever era you’re in now doesn’t need to be set in stone. You can be rich and poor five times over in the same life. You can be surrounded by friends and lonely a dozen times. You get the picture.. 

If you don’t love your reality, be rest assured of the good news: you can change. Loving life? Be grateful and hold your identity loosely, because that can change, too. 

See? Who said you’d never use any of those things you learned in high school later in life?
