Yes, I know. I'm not that old. I'm not even considered an adult yer. but.... I have seen time fly. It just amazes. And in a way, I want to go back. Back to when I was young and life was simple. Being seventeen though, I realize many more things than before. I'll be honest. I could stay seventeen forever. Its just a lot of stress. I love this age though, because there's so many things that I know now, but so much more to learn. I'm still fascinated at the world. and still have time to dream. Granted, I have no where close to an imagination as the kids I babysit, or the curiosity. But neither am I bitter or cynical about the world. It would be just wonderful if I could go back in time. I kind of think I lost some of my childhood. I would stress a lot. And all had was two or three friends. Until I got older, got braces, and lost weight. Its amazing how much, even at a young age, looks matter... but thats a different topic. Everything happens for a reason, and I truly believe that. I'm upset that life goes so fast, but then again, I'm glad that I realize that even now. I know the future is bright. I'm very optimistic. And I still can relive my youth. I've been spending time outside with my guy friends, and playing with my baby sister and the kids I watch. Its great to stay around the young. Now I'm starting to understand why they say life goes by so quickly. truly, our life is but a glimpse in the whole scheme of things...
"Children are remarkable for their intelligence and ardor, for their curiosity, their intolerance of shams, the clarity and ruthlessness of their vision."
Aldous Huxley
