If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

One minute, you’re carefree; the next minute, you’re facing life’s biggest challenges head on. My good friend Owen tells me you cannot help but change, especially if you’ve experienced something so drastic. You just can’t help it.

Maturity does not come with age. I can attest to that. Almost my entire life I just want to look at the world through a child’s eyes. Idealism sometimes causes us to get carried away. But in the end, reality always bites.

I must say I’ve matured over this past week, and I just couldn’t help but be.
