Growing
up.
Everybody
has a fear about growing up. It’s all a part of the growing up process, but
what exactly do we fear? The thought of going to a new school? Making
big decisions?
Leaving
friends behind?
Being left behind? Wearing a tie? Or simply not knowing what will happen next? We all
have these fears.
Unfortunately, they don't go away when you get older. Actually, it only gets
worse. The bigger you get, the fewer places there are to hide. Life will
set in and power upon you. There will be more responsibility, more work to do, more
pressure to succeed. Growing up, the world is a cold and scary place, filled with
unknown.
But,
hey, it’s
not that bad. It’s also filled with amazing things and awesome adventures. The
older you get the more you’ll experience. You meet new people, make new friends,
doors will open
leading you to new worlds and / exciting opportunities. Embrace the dream not knowing what will happen
next. Life is supposed to be a surprise; there is no reason to resent getting
older. / It
will be boring if we stay the same forever. Don't worry too much about growing
up. After all, how else would you reach the cookie jar?
