Leaving childhood behind......

Let me tell you, I don't think you ever get over it. Sure there are things that are cool about being older, but the younger years do hold a certain something in them. Ha, I make complete sense. Life as a child you are mostly oblivious and care free. You spend your days laughing, eating, sleeping, playing, etc--you live day to day and look forward to b-days and holidays (or getting together with friends). When you get older you don't live so much day to day. More like you look forward to things you will be able to do in time to come. You either live in the past or the future....some hardly ever live in the present. You become more aware of what is around you and the more you understand and know, the more life becomes....not sure what word I'm looking for. Yes, life has it's perks and it's not all bad, but for me the time in between childhood and coming up on being an 'adult' was a tough one. Mostly because of the changes mentally, but depression and OCD run in the family, so it's no wonder. As for the physical changes they were just slightly annoying at first and some still are. Haha, and then for some it doesn't really have to change much and there's not much of a transition. You don't have to leave everything behind from childhood--like your attitude towards life. Anyway, this thing is seriously long....for replying to someone else's blog.
