Growing Up

Thoughts 2012. 2. 1. 11:02
After some time, growing up is not natural anymore.
It doesn't happen automatically and once the physical changes are stalled, the mental and spiritual growth also hits the wall.

From thereon, it becomes a choice.
It becomes a choice for struggles.
As for someone who loves struggles, I choose that path gladly and, in return, I believe I am gaining something.
I know that many step aside and just walk along the wall and stay within.
I don't.
I headbutt against the wall.

Thus, when I see other people choosing the path of struggle to grow up, I respect them.

Sadly, it's not a required thing for humanity to aspire continued growth.
People still can make living while thinking like a teenager.
People become parents and/or become "successful" - pun intended - while thinking like a teenager.
Those people I give no respect.

Growing up is a choice, it's a struggle.
For that, you have to think... even more than you ever did in your life.
