I'm having this strange feeling of maturation. As I grow older, I am learning and understanding more and more things. I've often wondered why adults don't talk to us about growing up; it's always about professions, marks, and jobs. Why is it that no one discusses the duties you will face? You will go through several events as you grow older, such as losing friends or moving on with your life. Why is it that no one talks about how to live in the present? It could be the most difficult endeavour for mankind to accomplish. We are constantly concerned about our future and have regrets about our past, and as a result, we forget to live in the moment. We should all have goals in life, but we should also live our lives and appreciate the various colours of life. Why is it that no one tells us about the pathbreakers we will encounter in life? Life isn't simple, but it's also not that difficult if you find contentment in what you have. I'm envious of my friend when she outperforms me, so why can't I be ecstatic that I improved my score? Comparison is a natural human impulse that always results in disappointment. We're well aware of it, but we won't remember it. These thoughts suddenly popped into my mind, so I decided to jot them down in optimism that one day I would find the conclusion I was seeking!
