Honestly, I was scare to read about it because I knew what is it talking about before even I read about it. Why? The reason is simple, I Do Not Want To Face The Facts!!! As my tagline goes, "I'm still a little kid". I would like to be in my dream world. Looking/doing stuff like the kids will do. Though it may sounds stupid, but yeah, I enjoyed it. Having some cool dessert, some adventure alone, exploring the neighborhood alone, being a little unique on your phone/car/bike isn't just a privilege for kids/teens! Though the number 3 maybe come soon, but there's a little boy/girl exist in our heart. We are who we are and just be yourself!
One is never too old to do anything. There's no limit on what you can/can't do in the world. Go with your heart, flow with your heart, and enjoy every moment that will soon be the memories of you. No matter it's high or low, up or down, left or right, it's our own memories and some of the memories will keep us moving and reminds us how wonderful things can be.
I've quote the last sentence of the article which says “今天，之所以区别于昨天，恰恰是因为昨天的感受依然在我心中。”, which means, "Today is different that yesterday because yesterday's memories are still running clearly in my heart." Not to deny that I do remember how crazy I was, how adventurous I was, how naive I was, how stupid I was, how poor I was, how hardworking I was, how I was being pampered by my grandma, how good it was during holidays time...etc.. The list can go on and on and on...
Well, as of today, I really felt.. I am old.. After looking back, wow! I've already walked that far. How can I not to admit that I'm old? Deep down, it's hurting as I have to force myself to accept the fact that "I'm old" but still, "I'm still a little boy". =)
We all have what many people refer to as peter pan syndrome. We all want to leave in never land. ..a land where we never have to grow old, never have to take on bigger responsibility, never have to be serious. But our bodies were design to grow. We measure our lives by age and weight. We measure our wealth by the things we own. To grow old is not our choice but we have a choice when it comes to what we want to do with our lives no matter how young or old you are. Like they say. . Is not how old you are but how young you feel. I know you well enough that as much as you hate acknowledging that you are maturing, I believe that your biggest strength is that you are wise beyond your age. Embrace your strength because I know that God and your family only wants great things for you. Hugs
