OLD--MATURE?

do these words really apply to every adult individual? from the way i see things, i dont think it does.

i have observed several kids lately and ive seen something that is something worth learning from. three kids, who are sisters by the way, have lost their grandmother just a couple of weeks ago. and from what i have observed, the eldest has changed since her grandmother died. i dont exactly what triggered her to change--is it the death of her grandmother? or is it just because she is now entering the puberty stage?

frankly, i was shocked by the sudden change. since then, she has been taking care of her two other sisters and her little brother who didnt even get the chance to take care of his grandmother. (may she rest in peace). her two sister have been so discreet about the loss of their grandmother. after the burial, those kids lived their lives as if nothing happened. every day, they still play and laugh out loud while their older sister is always serious about stuff. taking care of household chores, everything that an adult is doing. but is it appropriate?

its not all the time that a kid recovers from a certain agenda in his/her life. most of the time, kids get traumatized (correct my spelling if im wrong) and they tend to change their behavior, even their personality. but is it really appropriate? i dont think so...kids are kids. let them be. if you are a parent who is concerned enough about your kid who is becoming a monster, try and do something to make it stop. a kid who is so serious in life at an early age grows up into the type of person that is most likely to get tantrums all the time, ends up being in a broken family when she gets settled later, a loner, a pessimist...in short, a REBEL.

i myself, in one way or another, is simillar to what i have described above. after being inflicted upon by so much pain in the past 21 years of my life, i have grown into something far more than my parents have expected me to become. even i cant believe that i have become like this. its not how i intended it to be but there is nothing i can do. i am stuck on becoming like this and i have to live it that way.

but there is this positive thing that keeps on buzzing at the back of my head...THINK POSITIVE. no matter how tough it gets, just be positive in life. learn to turn those negative vibes into something positive. not everything is in progression to negativity. in every agenda that happens in your life, there are always two sides of the story. its a balance between the good and the bad and it is your task whether you let the positive side or the negative side reign over you. DONT LET IT HAPPEN.

as what the ghost rider would say...I WILL TAKE THIS CURSE AND USE IT AGAINST YOU. and as what CARTER SLADE said, THERE ARE ONLY A FEW PEOPLE WHO SELL THEIR SOULS TO THE DEVIL AND HAVE THE GUTS TO CHANGE THE WORLD.

yeah, it goes something like that...but dont matter. what i am trying to point out is that, its not entirely bad to connect with your inner child-like behavior. most of the time people mistake you child-like behavior from losing your sanity and its not good. sometimes, you have to connect with your inner child for you to perform better. besides, being too serious wont get you nowhere. you have to charm people by bringing out your true self...trust me, its a fool-proof remedy to everthing.
