Growing Older, But Not Growin' Up


I am officially 31 on the 10th of October and I got to thinking. Growing older does not mean you have to grow up. I hate the phrase 'Act your age'...ok, so how does a 31 year old act and who determines how that age acts?! I am still a kid at heart. I love cartoons, I love playing games, and watching movies. I read and love kid's book and YA, so here is my question for you......are you just growing older or are you actually growing up as well?

Thanks for coming by my blog!

hmmm. I think the defining line between growing up and staying young is when one chooses to take everything too seriously. When suddenly they have to focus more to find the joy. you know?

Fortunately, or maybe unfortunately, I think I am doing both. But for me growing up entails losing some of my more immature qualities, like taking myself too seriously, being judgemental, believing in only black and white (I still believe there is black and white, that just isn't where people usually operate, and grace operates in the grey.) Anyway, probably TMI. Thanks for entering my giveaway, I will check out your other blog too!
