I remember when I was kid, I always wanted to do things older people do. Given that I'm surrounded by a lot of adults. Only me and my younger brother are the kids in the house. I wanted to do the dishes, I want to wash clothes, I want to sweep the floor, but they wouldn't allow me because I'm too young. It is not bad to help, but I do not know how to do it properly even if they teach me, because biologically, I'm still incapable.
Until I grow up to be a school girl. I started to be given the responsibility to help around the house by doing chores assigned to me. And at that time, I didn't want to do things I used to called "work of the old people" anymore. I changed.
When I reached high school, my parents talked to me about getting into relationships. I wasn't allowed to have a boyfriend while I am still studying. However, due to peer pressure and other "humanitarian forces," I got into relationships, some are serious relationships. And now, I have sown the fruits of the works that I've done, both negative and positive.
Don't you realize? Many of us wants to get where we want to be, even if it's not in time. We race over time, wanting to be where we want to be even if it was not yet meant. In our own point of view, this is right because this is what we want.
Most of the time we love to do what's forbidden. In the end, I found myself stopping schooling for a year, and this whole year I realized so many things. It might be normal for us to change every stage we grow to. However, it is important to take in guidance from experienced people(specially parents). Yes, we make mistakes, but is it not better to avoid it? We do learn a lot in mistakes, but long as we can learn lessons in easy ways, why not?
I know I may not be good at this. However, due to my life experiences, I want to share that we all normally go extra steps fast. Most of us want to grow up too soon, but what would it be like if you were not prepared. It's very difficult believe me. However, when you're already there, it's a challenge for you, how you handle it.
