Growing up

It is a really good feeling when you know you have grown up- somewhat (Smile)!

No more pouting at the big stuff.

Just the little stuff: like your last bit of butter pecan icecream fell on the floor of the kitchen and you think its too gross to even lick the top part of it off the floor.

Now that you are grown up, you can allow people to be who they are and still be their friend.

They can be distant and not return calls promptly or emails for that matter, but because you are grown up now and you still like them, you know that you will be there for them in a heartbeat, and you still think they are really great.

So whenever they contact you ...now or 5 years from now you can sit down and catch up just like old times.

So that is what I like about being grown up - emotionally I mean.

Janice says that "Growing up is also knowing that people suck and that you can't change people"

I like the fact that it's always a good thing when you finally realize and can accept that.
