Self

It’s called growing up every one needs to do it. It’s not only when bones in your body grow. It’s also when you mature and grow to understand that everything can’t go your way. It’s self-realization and realizing what’s happening in the world around you. Things change and people change, you have to change with the world so that you wont be left out and you wont be hurt. One must realize that when one changes another has to change with it. It’s like a domino affect. The fact that I have been an adult before my time makes it hard for me. I never got to be spoiled, I never got to be babied, and I never got to cry when I didn’t get what I wanted. I never got those things so I figured that since I have been grown for so long it may just be my time to be babied. I now know that it’s not. I am too old for that. I have to take each day very slowly so that when I do get pampered it will be in the adult way, with all the money and friends I will make in the near future. I am the only one that can create and maintain my happiness. I know that I can also bring joy in the lives of others.
