Maybe this is what adult really says. My mom had been telling me when I was a kid that "honey, please dont grow fast. I dont want you to suffer and realize what life really is. " or more like what the reality is.
But since then I always dream of becoming teenager fast. Well, let's just say maybe because I want to have a house already, to make lots of money to buy more toys, so on and so forth. My friends and I had always been dreaming of getting a house or should I say, more like a dream house where we can stay together and bond forever. Or maybe because I want to stop doing homework.
And as I grew older, the tasks, the homework, requirements became hard. But I one day met this man in high school. I seriously felt a little tingling inside my stomach The time I saw him, he one day approach me then yeah he court me and I answer him. Btw, we only known each other for five months.
Well, maybe we dont know each other that much because we broke up. He cheated me with younger and sexier woman. My friend says that he's not worth crying and we should just hang out more.
Everytime we hangout, there's always a man standing beside the bar and handing out flyers. Well, I always ignore it I am just concern cause he is standing there 5 hours per day. The time we go in and out off the bar he's still there asking people flyers. So of course I one day got curious so I accept the flyers he'd always giving. Its an adulting blah blah blah orientation. I once go to the orientation and got amaze on how they acknowledge young people into knowing about what adult life is.
There is one that really have been always in my mind that I learned in that orientation:
"Dont rush yourself. Take every little thing worth it" Beacuse being an adult and having a work is so suffering. When you get old there are days that you'll start to say 'how i miss the good and happy old days, not worrying if I have savings in atm, not worrying about bills to pay, and not worrying what food to eat.
You'll one day miss getting carried by your father because of sleeping on the sofa and magically wake up lying in bed. You'll surely one day miss your mom tying and combing your hair, packing your lunchbox and getting your uniform ironed.
You will one day miss your youth days not worrying about anything and just enjoying the life you had.
My husband had always been reminding me of our youth days, yes its not easy to be an adult but its part of your life, of everyone's life. But its sometime feels great to talk about precious old memories you had. My husband and I always sit on the balcony sipping a hot coffee watching our kids playing on the yard and reminiscing our youth life.
And yes, my husband is the one that's giving the flyers outside the bar and we're now billionaires. Thanks to our hard working youth days.
