“Let's
we discuss and talk about growing up.” Growing up is one the most
important and great part of life, it is and it will be always, the
word “grow” needs a strong desire. It not relates with only human
being but growth is truth for all living creatures. But in the case
of human being as we grow up things change. Life
was so much easier back then when scratches from the bike ride were
the worst pain. When the elder's anger was an intimidate for us. The
worst fight you had was about who would have remote control. When was
fall in love with every second girl. When was dreaming of becoming so
and so. Life was so much easier when goodbyes meant “I’ll
see you tomorrow”
and when no one was afraid to say “I
love you”.
But,
As we grow up things change.
Or maybe we do. Fading away, drifting with the flow, losing
ourselves. Forgetting childhood dreams and old promises. Getting lost
in the whirlpool of fake priorities and artificial emotions. We do
things because we are supposed to do them. Because someone said so.
Because everyone does this and that. We forget who we are and what we
want. We are too scared to follow our own dreams. Or maybe time does.
Twenty four hours are not enough anymore. We want more time, so that
we can earn more money. We have to run somewhere, but don't even
aware about the destination. We want to conquer all world but don't
know for whom. To fix this, to clear that, to fight, to argue, to
prove ourselves right, to learn new stuff, to earn more money, to
work more, to smile less. We wanted to do work and work and only work
even when we know that we're not happy by doing this or that work.
Even we want to do something that make our heart so prosperous that
it was never before. But somehow we are trucked in the hard struggle
of life.
We
are living with an unknown hours of destroying our own desires. An
unknown minutes of constant struggling. An unknown seconds of
permanent stress. Deprived of the privilege to actually enjoy life.
May be we
have a luggage of sad memories, broken promises, lost friendships,
missed opportunities. We know what it is like to believe, to hope, to
dream. But we also know how it feels when every promise, every
feeling, every dream would break into pieces. The pieces which even
collected and put into the trunk of our experience are not the whole
anymore. Day by day It is going tougher to be happy. We want more
from life, we expect more from people. We lose more. We are not the
same anymore. It is tougher to believe. Tougher to dream. Tougher to
be that kid who wanted to fly high in the sky like an eagle, or a
hawk, or just any bird. It is tougher to be a human being. We are now
just behaved like a programmed devices, who was controlled by an
unknown force. We stop throwing coins into the fountains. We don’t
cross fingers anymore or make a wish when we blow out birthday
candles. We don’t believe in the shooting stars either. Maybe
because we lost hope that our deepest wishes would finally come true.
We earn more and more, but we live less. we laugh less. We enjoy
less. We forget to call people we care about. We pretend to be too
busy. We don’t have time to tell people what they mean to us. We
forget what it means to be real. To be human. To be yourself.
Change
is good and I always believe in change and I accept the change with
an open heart and as we grow up things need to be change, Besides, in
this way. I wished change not to be happen in this way.
I wish they didn’t.
