Growing up

As years passed by, we all realized that we grow in a sense or so.
We realized that things aren't the same anymore, nor what we thought life was much simpler.
We fight, we take risks, we do all that we want without thinking about those consequences.
We often complicate things, when actually things are simple.
We think it far, unlike when we were young.

Of course, we grow, we think more sensibly.
For every actions we do, we think.
We think of how it will affect us if we do in this or that way.
We learnt how to feel, we affect other's feelings and emotions, and vice versa.

The amount of things that matter to us increase, as we grow.
We became concerned with all those things or issues around us.
We became emotional over certain things.
We became immune to things that have hurt us again and again.

Never-ending to-do-list, when we don't even have a goal or agenda to accomplish as a kid.
We were once a kid,
those innocent looking eyes and mind that does not know what the world can bring to us or rather what in the world matters to us.

Those words, that we have never being able to say, we say them.
Together with those courage and determination that we thought we would never have.
Throughout the years, i guess we all became more daring and brave to fight for those little things that we thought were worth the fight.

Those feelings, experiences, life stories that we heard might influence us in a way or rather, affect our perception on things.
which in turn 'cause us not to believe in whatever that we initially thought it was.
But isn't all this part of growing up?

We feel, we hurt, we cry, we pick ourselves up once again, we believe, we hurt, and the cycle goes on..
This is life, this is how we grow up,
how we become a better person,
how we differentiate the rights and wrongs.
how we learnt how to live in this society.
