As a youth, you need to realize that even if you were to gain the approval of your peers, years from now most of them likely will not even remember your name.
وَكَحَدَثٍ ،‏ يَجِبُ أَنْ تُدْرِكَ أَنَّهُ حَتَّى لَوْ نِلْتَ ٱسْتِحْسَانَ نُظَرَائِكَ ،‏ فَبَعْدَ سَنَوَاتٍ لَنْ يَتَذَكَّرَ مُعْظَمُهُمُ ٱسْمَكَ .‏
