MATURITY VS. IMMATURITY

Wasn't childhood grand? The simplicity in everything and the ignorance. Those were the parts of childhood that I enjoyed. As a child it was easy to give any answer to any question without fearing any blast of rage due to your reply. Everyone assumed that they were geniuses because we believed that we were simply smarter than the next person, everyone knew that they were the strongest because they won that last game of arm-wrestling and everyone believed they were the most attractive because mother told them so. Those were the good old days. When nothing bothered us apart from that missed episode of SpongeBob Squarepants. But alas, those moments have to come to an end.
As we get older we look at the world from a different perspective. Nothing is ever as bright or as colourful as they were before, we all give the same answer to the one question because it is the "mature" thing to do and we worry too much about what the rest of the world thinks about us rather than what we think about the rest of the world. The world is just so dull because we have come to limit our expectations and cut-off our imagination. A wise man once said that maturity terms rationality as knowing what we cannot do. Well, I say that wise man was not wise enough. An even wiser man said that adults are obsolete children. Why is that so? We lack what it takes to make our lives magical. We worry more about the latest fashion trends, no matter how uncomfortable they are, rather than being happy.
Why don't we go back to our roots (the roots in reference being immaturity)? Maybe the world would be so much better if we learned the answer to this question: are you happy with the way you live your life today? Well, honestly I am not. I'd rather be frolicking in the garden rather than stay indoors and study for my next test. But I can't because I was told that mature people know how to prioritise. Well, I say that immature people know WHAT to prioritise.
Live your life for you and not for those around you. You were born alone (unless you have a twin) and you will die alone (unless you die in some sort of freak accident) so wouldn't it be better to make the most of your life in a way that pleases you?
