Be careful not to be to honest because even the straight trees get chopped off first, the first time i read this i felt like i was being told to get rid of my innocence. Then again growing up all i was taught was honesty is the best policy,that you should always be true to yourself and others. What i grew up knowing is now different. I had to learn that change is the only constant.
When i was a little younger than i am now:-) all i wanted was to grow up, i know this is probably everyone's story, don't get me wrong my childhood was great. I would go on and on about my escapades with my brothers but that i will leave for another day. All i thought of growing up is being able to do things your own way and no questions were asked. Who didn't want that?
No one warned me that there are a thousand responsibilities that come with being of age and none of this will ever be taught in class... All i knew was you need to get good grades, work smart and you will be successful. I wouldn't want to say that being financially stable doesn't give some sort of fulfillment but life has a lot more to offer. To be successful you need to be all round. So don't be afraid to try and fail, we learn with experiences.
No one taught me to be happy, no one said to me this is the method to be content,there is no formula to love, no mathematical equation to solve a heartbreak,there is no chemical equation that will show me the end product of life.You see all this things i learned on my own...
We redefine those definitions taught in class with our very own experiences. We choose what to believe, we tune our minds in a way that makes us happy. We love ourselves more than we love others. We stop caring so that we don't get hurt. We stop believing because we were let down. These are the things that no teacher will ever sit to teach , we will learn and grow from our own version of events. So i now know what it means to grow, what it means to be responsible, i now know that life doesn't always follow a certain course and i should always be ready to embrace change.The main idea is not to die empty,sad or unfulfilled.
with nothing but love,
stay fly!
