Senti

When I was in elementary and high school, I always thought it's so cool to be a grown up. You get to do a lot of things on your own without your parents help. You can drink beer just because you're having fun with your friends and not because you're only pretending to be cool just because you can do stuff that grown ups do. You can buy things with your own money without worrying what your parents might say. You can stay up late and sleep whenever you like. You can go to parties without having any arguments with your mom just to make her let you go. You can date anyone you like without worrying of getting pregnant with a kiss. There were tons of reasons I had back then which makes me eager to be a grown up right away. Assignments and high grades made me itch to get out of my school days. I thought that it'll be super to be a grown up because I could finally do things on my own and make decisions for my own life. But now that I'm here on this stage I can't see those reasons as enthusiastically as I saw them many years ago. Now, I long for the simple life I had back then. The times I look forward to the most simple things my family and friends gave me. I love where I am and who I am now. I love the people that came into my life even those who just passed by. And i am not complaining from all the hardships I've gone through. But I wish grown up life is not that complicated. I wish it was as simple as a 10 year old's. I wish that a fight between two people who love each other only lasts a day. I'm not asking for these life's complications to eradicate. I just wish for them to be over sooner without the need of changing too many things in your life. I wish it was easier to talk about things without the need of someone to die just to prove their point and killing too many innocent life. I wish it's easier to compromise on things we all had a different views about. I wish there were only healthy competitions without the need of saying mean things about people you truly don't know. I wish I have simple wishes in life but I guess life is not that simple. Or maybe it is. Maybe it's the people who make life complicated. I hope when these kids grow up they won't face the same world I am facing now. Or if they do, I hope it'll be them who will change it.
