Can anyone tell me what the real meaning of GROWING UP is????? Well I know you have hell lot to comment on it. Ok then Let me begin…
I have always wondered, during my 1st standard, of growing up someday. But that growing up was all about becoming physically big. Never knew that growing up would be so complex (made by we the human beings). I have realized down the years that our concept of growing is so simple..But almost all of us make it so perplex. I know as we become older, we tend to get matured in the way we look, think and act. But now the main point… why do we try to change what we are within??? Why???
I am an adult...Grown up...And I just love being myself being the child at heart. Not pretending and thing about what others might think and talk. There are times when I talk to people of my age or younger to me...And they say you are so kiddish? I really feel pity on them that they have lost their inner child so early!! Ha ha ha!! Poor things... Now you might tell me that there is always a time for everything..ya I agree !! But tell me my friends, stepping into your empty bedroom or bath room and being your inner child… does that make any sense to you!!! Well I am not talking of making a fool out of you, neither do I do it. But when you say “I am not into such irrelevant discussions”...”Its not of my age”… “Those are for Kids, grow up”... I just smile and laugh to the core deep within myself coz no matter how elder or younger you are, how much successful you are financially or in career, you have lost the most valuable asset you can possess till you die – “the inner child”!!
Am I talking crap?? No way..And if you think so then buddy I think you have moved ahead of growing up… you have grown old!!! I know many will refer to their own lives as they are reading it. That’s ok, at least realize it dear!!
So, next time when you are having pop corns and peanuts throw them in air and try catching it by your mouth. No matter where you are. ..Make a smiley on your thumb and talk to it for few seconds, no matter where you are. ..Make funny faces at small kids and make them laugh, no matter where you are… talk about the colours of clothes you are wearing and taste of foods you are eating, no matter where you are. Etc etc …You know I dont mind being called as kiddish, than be a hypocrite towards self !!
There are so many things in life to cherish. Don’t you realize the life is so small and uncertain? Let your build up physique and social status not stop you from being your “inner child”. Life fun buddy!! And while reading this if you have thought at least once that I am an idiot, then I thank you for it…coz that’s serves the purpose. I’m sure you din get me!! ha ha ha ..have fun !!
