"dont grow up too fast they said"

honestly its not about staying a kid;
its about growing up and learning new things,
the good and the bad because there is so much of both,
and learning how to deal with it, and at the sametime being able to stay a kid in the sense that you can be carefree at times and have fun and be goofy and silly,
and thats a really difficult balance.
because if you try not to grow up then you fall behind,
and if you're too serious and take on too much then you lose out.
