The youthof Perm de monstrate talents
in arts and records in sports. Like any other teenagers, they
enjoy movement and modern rhythm, they dance, sing and fall
in love.
Those children who have just started their first school will
fall in love. They will enjoy new music and new rhythm, master
new software and snobbishly remark on our errors.
Those who will leave the secondary school in one - two years
will take over the responsibility for the land on the Kama
banks. They will have to determine the political and economic
course of their city, region, country. They will give new
poets and new governors of the province, new Olympic champions
and new academicians.
Their life will not be all too easy but from the childhood
they are more open to the world, their daring minds will overcome
sluggishness, and they will manage not only to preserve but
also develop the traditions of devotion, creativity, originality
on our ancient but young land.
