Heh..good point. However, people need to understand there is a time and place for maturity and a time and place for immaturity, e.g: c0r.

Why do people tell others to "grow up?" To me, it's nothing but bad advice.
I can say pretty confidently that all of you have either been children, or still are. Sometimes, I think people forget how great it was to be a child as they grow older. As a young child, every day is an adventure, there are new places and activities to explore, new ways to test your limits, and new things to think, do, and imagine. Children don't spend their time worrying about how mature they appear, or where they're going to be in ten years, or the finer points of business etiquette, they spend their time laughing, playing, exploring, and enjoying life.
It seems to me like maturity is a contrived virtue. A virtue invented by rigid, sterile "grown-ups" who forgot how to enjoy their time on this planet years ago. They spend their time in grave concern over their responsibilities, passing meaningless judgments on those who live their lives free and unfettered by the stagnant shackles of maturity and propriety.
Many of us, myself included, are at a point in our lives where there is increasing social pressure to conform with this culture of "grown-up-ness," and if you find yourself in that position now or in the future, I hope you will give some consideration to my words. There are times where you will need to pretend to be "grown up" in order to be successful, but there are no times when you will need to be "grown up." It will take a little extra effort, and perhaps be slightly dishonest, but I believe it is a small sacrifice for the ability to retain the virtue of immaturity. It would be a waste of your life to heed the words of those who would tell you to "grow up."
I advise you: do not grow up. Instead, enjoy life fully. |
your right on the ball mate...
telling someone to "grow up" is like telling someone to "calm down" in an arguement, it never works. |

Some good points in your post, but I dont think that becoming more 'mature' means that you stop enjoying yourself, or knowing how to laugh and have fun. Being mature just means that you know when to have fun, and when to be serious and deal with things responsibly.

exactly.. and who says its not fun to be mature?
you can definatley coordinate your fun better with a mature attitude instead of just pure randomness (which can be fun), but at times too overly chaotic :p |
