WHEN YOU GET "OLDER"

cerry

When you get "older"...

When you get "older" that's when you will know life!

At least that's what they said...

So when we were young what happened to us wasn't life?

Cause every time they say that, that's what I think about.

But maybe it's just the wording...

They say you don't have bills to pay, so why are you stressed?

As if money is the only thing that gets you stressed 

It's funny really because it all starts at a young age...

the stress,

the pressure,

the mental breakdowns,

I wonder...

did they all even mean anything or is it me who missed something?

Life starts at birth

But life also starts at the age where you start to feel...

We know life is based on survival,

on what we went through,

and we all have things we went through 

So no I don't believe that life starts when you're "older"

I believe that you gain new responsibilities when you get older 

but you gain the strength to keep up from what you went through while you were young...

through the life you went through since young...

but that's just me though:)

That's what I believe...

    I agree with your thought on this. Even if someone younger has problems that are't the end of the world as an adult it is still not right to dismiss them. It just shows a lack of understaning. Which doesn't really scream maturity

      As we age we have the wisdom of hindsight. It can't be taught, it can't be sold, it is the gift of getting old.
      We all were young and felt the strain, and wish we had our time again!
