Growing Up

Another reason to grow up today. For the past few years since I have become a "legal" adult, I have realised what it is to grow up, because of the various incidents I have been through. This is what growing up is through my eyes:

Thinking from the head when your heart wants something else, just because it is the right thing to do.

Staying put when all you want to do is run miles and miles away from that place.

Smiling when all you want to scream in pain.

Fighting on when there seems to be no hope and you want to give up.

Going miles away to realise the value of what you have left behind.

Growing up is not always fun...but it is one of the best things that could happen to you. Makes you a human, and keeps you one!
