Growing up means learning what life is. When youre little, you have a set of ideals, standards, criteria, plans, outlooks, and you think that you have to sit around and wait for them to happen to you and then life will work. But life isnt like that, for anybody; you cant fall in love with a standard, you have to fall in love with a person. You cant live in a criteria, you have to live your life. You cant wait for your plans to materialize, because they may never materialize the way you think they will. You cant wait to watch your ideals and standards walk up to you, because you cant know whats yours until you have it. I always say, always take the first chance in case you never get a second one, but growing up takes that even one step further, growing up means that you have to hold on to what you have, when you have it, because what you have- thats yours- and all the ideals and criteria you have set in your head, those arent yours, because those havent happened to you..
