maturity seems to be an issue now these past few weeks, not only for me but for other people i know. so what is maturity? is it limited to action? and how far can it go...
Immaturity- The state or quality of being immature or not fully developed.
Maturity- The period of time in your life after your physical growth has stopped and you are fully developed
developement has a lot to do with age, but does age have anything to do with maturity? ive personally felt that one should hold on to childhood as long as possible. when you were a kid, it didnt matter if bad things happened in the world... you didnt worry about getting older.. and you certainly didnt worry about falling head over heels for anyone... which is the best part of being immature. getting older means having so much more responsibility for things... things of greater value that were harder to obtain. so your pushed up so far to get these things... and once youve had them, your happy... at least for the moment. and if you lose them....... you fall so hard to the ground you leave gashes and open holes that make the next thing you want a lot more unobtainable.....
so whats this all about? nothing.. go back to doing whatever you were before you started reading this... 8)

being immature is one thing, being responcible is another. I think you can be free, what some people percieve as immature, and yet at the same time be responcible. I think that people look at me of acting a bit immature, but really it is a way to just be expressive.

Maturity is many things to many people, but I think being responsible is part of it. Some of it is just being aware. As we get older, we gain knowledge of how the world works and we should use that knowledge to do the right thing. I also think it is a never-ending process.
