I Believe Age Doesnt Define Maturity

There Are Other Factors...

Written on April 29th, 2012
By the time I was about eight, people said that I was thirty. By the time a lot of people are thirty, I think that they just turned fourteen.
I think that experience, as well as attitude defines how emotionally, and mentally mature someone is. Just because you're fifty, it doesn't mean that you've experienced more than someone who is thirty.
I also think that once you are comfortable enough with yourself to not care if people see you as immature, then you're far and away more mature than the people who are self-conscious about it.

    Wow, i just posted a shitier version of what u just said. Should have read you first. Uh, yeah i agree. I just recently realised it myself. Character is nothing u can shed like dead burned skin or smthng. Its memories and how we see and process things in our mind. My mother is aufuly more imature than i am and has been threw serious problems. Sometimes i just feel like an old woman next to people.

    I do believe that those like us are a rare breed, unfortunately.

    Wow, I was starting to wonder if I was the only one who was like this, and thought like this.
