Youth is a time to rejoice and enjoy the blessings of life, but it is also a time to make wise decisions that will affect the rest of one's life. This verse encourages teens to embrace the joy of their youth, but it is important to remember that joy should not be rooted in fleeting pleasures or reckless behavior.
