1. Discourse on Modern Youth Love, Sample 1:
I believe that students of the age attending school should prioritize their studies to step forward in realizing beautiful dreams for the future. Moreover, schools and families need to collaborate closely to educate students. Organize extracurricular activities or workshops on sex education, school love, etc. Each teacher must understand students, pay attention to their emotional changes to have timely and effective impacts, helping them recognize mistakes to limit them and enhance positive aspects. Incorporate discussions in each lesson to teach and analyze for students to have a more accurate view of school love.
Youth love is not wrong, and it's difficult to prohibit because emotions are a sacred intangible thing that no one can prevent. However, each of our students needs to have a profound perspective and understanding of love. A beautiful and pure romance in the student years needs to be built on trust, nobility, and generosity so that every day, the love becomes more beautiful, pure like the student years. As students, we must determine our main task now is to study, to strive for the future, to build happiness for the future.
2. Discourse on the love of today's youth, model 2 (Standard)
Love in Vietnamese literature and world literature has become a very familiar theme, a rich land that artists eagerly explore. Xuân Diệu once defined love as follows: 'To love is to die a little in the heart because seldom does one love and be sure to be loved. Give a lot but receive not much. People betray or are indifferent, not knowing.' I often ponder if life had no love, how would people feel, what would be lacking in life? All love is beautiful and wonderful, but the love of today's youth is perhaps a topic worth discussing more.
Defining love accurately has always been a challenge. Some say it's about tolerance and understanding, being together in all circumstances. Others claim it's sacrificing, giving emotions without expecting anything in return. Some even argue that love is an emotion arising from the increase of certain hormones in the body, an irresistible attraction between two individuals. Regardless of the conceptual approach, one thing is certain in love: loyalty, trust, selflessness, and bonding are indispensable. Without them, it ceases to be genuine love. Love is always linked to intense longing, the desire to be together, sacrifice, sharing, understanding each other—normal emotions that make people joyful, optimistic, and view the world and life positively.
The love of today's youth is undeniably beautiful. The human youth may be short or long, but it is the most valuable and cherished. In that age, people have many dreams, hopes, and desires for finding happiness and success in life. Love is one of the things that young people are drawn to the most, during the vibrant youth, filled with vitality. It's hard to resist the mutual attraction between individuals. A young man may get lost in the autumn-like eyes of a girl, a teenage girl may be infatuated with the warm figure of a boy. This is the natural law of life, irresistible. Love is significant and sacred as it forms the foundation of a happy family, the basis of human lineage continuation. Love helps people overcome all difficulties and hardships, making life more beautiful. Love motivates people to strive and achieve great success. Especially in youth, when people are prone to confusion due to not finding the direction of life, feeling lonely and frustrated, love becomes a necessary and effective source of energy and tranquility.
The student age is also considered youth. Who dares to affirm that there is no love among students? In modern society, with developed communication and more open lives, students falling in love early has become quite common and as normal as having meals every day. It's not such a big deal; students are starting to have certain perceptions of life, and romantic relationships are one of their psychological needs. People often think that students in love are reckless, immoral, and lose their morals. However, I've witnessed many student couples in love who remain obedient to their teachers, excel in their studies, and even help each other progress. Love in the student age is beautiful, pure - the first stirrings of emotion. Even if, for some reason, they cannot be together for a lifetime, those memories will always remain unforgettable. While young and inexperienced, they may sometimes hurt each other over trivial matters, but these experiences will contribute to their maturity in life, not something terribly wrong.
Despite the positive impacts of love on the youth, it's evident that today's young people seem to have thoughts and behaviors in love that are not truly appropriate. Firstly, it stems from impulsive and immature thinking. Secondly, they lack systematic education about love, how to treat others, and thirdly, it's rooted in their personalities and moral values. It's perplexing that love, inherently a beautiful and sacred emotion, is often viewed by many young people as a game—fleeting romances, unfaithfulness, and chaotic entanglements. Some see love as a business, for personal gains, exploiting their partners and causing deep emotional wounds. Some even consider relationships as a means to satisfy ambitions or personal desires, callously abandoning them when bored. This reflects a decline in ethics, a degradation of the character of today's youth—a social issue. Many young people engage in unsafe sexual activities in relationships, leading to regrettable consequences such as infections, unintended pregnancies, greatly affecting their lives and future. This is the price paid for a lack of understanding, knowledge, and immaturity in life.
So, young people, especially students, be aware: Love is an emotion, but your actions must be rational. The timing of love doesn't matter; however, you must be conscious of your actions. Love should not violate ethics, break the minimal principles in a relationship; don't be too blind in love, forgetting other aspects of life because love alone cannot shape your entire life. Youth is not just for love but also for building the future, realizing dreams with all your efforts and endeavors today. For students, early love is acceptable, but you must be sober-minded and rational. Let love elevate you, create trust, and motivate you to study and nurture yourselves better. Don't let love lead you down a path of ruin, darkness, and self-destruction.
Affection, friendship, and love are the three core emotions that make up an individual's spiritual life. Missing any of these makes us incomplete both physically and mentally. Love correctly, have a beautiful and pure love, and if love is blameless, don't force it to bear the sins caused by ourselves.
