Which is the Best Period of a person's life ?

I think youth is the best period of a person's life. It is that period when a sense of freedom and responsibility starts developing in us. Youth is that period of a person's life when he starts materialising the dreams of his childhood. A youth has a distinct goal before him.

Many poets have defined youth as the springtime of a person's life. Youth is that period when one attains mental maturity and wants to become self dependent. His power to think independently and imaginatively creates exciting possibilities for him to uplift things in life. A youth prefers to stand on his own feet with his head held high. He learns to accept the hard realities of life instead of building castles in the air. To face the challenges of life becomes the mission of his career. Thus, I think, the period of strength, vigour, hope,energy and enthusiasm is the best period of a person's life.
