Everyone has a story

Everyone has a story

 They say that you feel as old as your age, nothing more and nothing less. The truth couldn't be further from it, I am young and yet there are days when I feel as old as the world and others when I feel that I've seen nothing and known nothing yet and so much yet is coming.

 You feel as old as  life is leading you. Your experiences, your ups and downs ,  the upsets  and the joys are what shape you today, change you up to one day you look at your mirror ,at yourself  and ask, "Is that me?" and you find that you are different.  The stages in your life are the reasons for your change .when I was young I always wanted to grow old so fast, now that I’m old I say I wish I days can take me back. Every stage in life or every year we get older m responsibilities become bigger. I sometimes miss the person I used to be and the little girl who now only belongs in distant memories. Time cuts away at the surface until you are left with what you've become and the story to your name, all that belongs to you in this life is yourself and your identity. Never fool yourself into believing that you can change either of the two. Never change yourself for the wrong reasons and never doubt that no matter who you are.

There are times when the weight of the world is upon your shoulders, and times when it brings you to your knees and you want to sleep until the worries fade away. And in the beauty you see in the world, be it in a child’s smile, child innocence, or the love of a friend, you pick yourself up and stand back .as you grow older, the worries never leave but you become stronger, run faster and open your heart wider. You carry yourself better and handle your situations wiser. And truly live better once you start understanding life more.

  2. Wow.... Please don't grow up to fast, but to tell you the truth, the more you are happy with your route in life and your accomplishments, the more you are happy as a grown up. When you come to this situation, you will never miss a day in your past, live for the present, and won't be afraid of the future. Great topic to dive into...
