What are you going to be when you grow up?

Thanks for this Jestor. I did notice there was a flat time in my life where I was stagnant. For me, during a lot of defense, when I'm occupied with studies or life is just full I often stir the pot. Example. Every now and then my son will say with his arms up " hug stop" and we are obliged to drop what we are doing and answer the call. One days the hug stop will stop. The kisses will less frequent some day. Yet we make the attempt. We try. I stirr the pot with questions like this often in my family. Have we reached our goal of maturity? Will we? Do we need to? What's exeptable. ? All these we are always on our table. Thanks for the reminders. I don't think I'll ever stop dreaming. And in dreaming I don't think I'll ever really ever grow up. I'm not immature, big difference, but the "child like faith" of wanting to know and learn I think still lives and can be attained. ( with proper practice of course)

i wish i could shake those people and tell them "YOU DONT HAVE TIME TO WASTE!! YOU ARE GOING TO DIE!! IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU LOVE, DO IT, GO DO IT NOW!!"

ive always known that i love martial arts, whether i can really fight or not, whether im in good shape or not, ive always had a passion for training, but there have been SO MANY years that ive allowed to go by NOT in a gym or a dojo, training. I regret every single year, every month and every week that i wasnt doing what i loved. It never gets easier than it is right now, ever. Do it now and maybe one day youll be amazing at it: DONT do it now and youre just wasting another day

do you want to be the old lady who wishes she could play the drums or the old lady who jumps on a set and rocks it out??

i wanna rock that shit!

I want to be a successful author when I grow up. That's my dream.

Unfortunately, not all of us have to means to just 'go do it' :dry:

I think the biggest one to get wover was that I was not going to get to do everything I love always...that sure realization that my most precious commodity was time...and I don't have enough o spend on everything...


Atleast, not as this experience.

Hey, who let the 'grownup' in?

:laugh: :laugh:

No, you are right, in that we dont have financial support to hit it with both feet... But, just as I am not the perfect Jedi, and will probably never achieve it in the eyes of many, including myself, should I stop that too? Or do the best with what I've got?

That's a question I can't answer. I don't want to grow up!

do the best with what I've got!

Tsst.

Heheh.

All I want to be is "not what I was"

Not exactly "carpe diem", but we can't all live glorious lives.
