What defines growing up? Quitting all those things that were once part of life in the youth does not define 'growing up'. In reality, we all know we have grown up when we stand solely on the mountain built by our own thoughts, derived from our very emotions.
"We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public" -Bryan White
In the aura of everyday life, we blend with the moving times and tend to forget those little things that once brought us happiness, thinking that they are a thing of the past. As an adult today, when I look back, one of the many exciting chapters of life as kids was 'cartoons'. Watching them even when you turn 40 does not weigh you down from growing up - or does it? They definitely don't. Cartoons come as riddle to human minds. With them, they bring smiles that burst. Most of us are a rolling dice, thanks to the humour they provide.
You know you have grown up when you mature. You know you have matured when you simply know what you want from life. You stop chasing. Instead, one starts creating their own self. Equipped with logic and emotion, you are ultimately a person you never thought you will be. We all grow up and learn of a side of us that is unique. Being what you are not is a waste of your own existence. By being yourself, you add an element to this world that never existed before.
Growing up does not mean letting go childishness - "Childishness? I think that's the equivalent of never losing your sense of humour" -Walt Disney. Every single person grows up to be unique with their own thoughts and ideas. As humans, one should believe in the inherent goodness of people. If my logic differs from yours, I will not consider you 'bad'. Don't judge anyone just because they sin differently.
An ideal homogenisation is achieved when we adapt according to different situations. Humour, ego, logic, emotion, love and spirit sums up to transform each of us as a person, a separate soul charged with an idea and sentiment to move on, to make a difference.
Lastly, you know you are unique, you really do have worth. You know you can endure. And you know you are a strong. So don't distress for anyone who doesn't find you even; always let your conscience be your guide.
