Human
life
 is divided into various phases. Each phase brings about different charms.
Although
, some people will argue that, adult
life
 is the most enjoyable
period
 of
life
, I believe teenage has the greatest charm despite all the personal conflicts people go through. Teenagers are regarded as the people of age group of 13-19 years.
This
 is the
period
 when a person is going through a transition from childhood to
adulthood
.
Hence
, everything seems so different and people start to dream about
life
.
Moreover
,
this
 is the
period
 when people get attracted to the opposite gender and start to feel love.
As a result
, everything feels so beautiful and
life
 comes to us with a different meaning.
In addition
 to that, people feel a bit arrogant and try to defy the common rules of the society which may limit their activities of adolescence. That means,
this
 is the
life
 of being in love, showing date and being rebellious.
On the other hand
,
adulthood
 is the
period
 of wisdom. People become matured enough due to all experiences gathered during the adolescence. In short, it can be called as the
period
 of stability. Any arrogant or short sighted decision is usually avoided during
this
period
 while those decisions are common among teenagers. For
this
,
life
 doesn’t face much difficulty, rather can overcome most of the problems which are nearly impossible during teenage. In the end, it is obvious that facing & solving problems of
life
 is easier in
adulthood
 &
thus
life
 becomes smooth. But, the colour which shows in the teenage is incomparable with that of
adulthood
 which makes it more attractive.
