![]() Someday, you’ll be sitting in an empty room all by yourself, staring into the darkness and wishing you could go back to the golden days. There are more responsibilities then we could have ever imagined. It’s important to understand that growing up isn’t as exciting as it seems. I miss the feeling of freedom, having all the time in the world, and when boys were considered “icky.” I miss the days when the worst phrase ever spoken was “shut up.” I miss the days when I could entertain myself just by running around in my backyard and when the hardest decision I ever had to make was which ice cream flavor I wanted. These are the perks of youth that should never be taken advantage of. I realize now that I shouldn’t take advantage of my pure skin, no wrinkles, and naturally fit body. Age tends to make us slowly slip into a depression that can only be cured with the happy memories of our childhood. Age reminds us each day of the mistakes we have made, the regrets we have, and the memories that we want to forget. I have often wandered to myself how such beauty could be destroyed by age, and how quickly time slips away from us. Age comes quickly, and it captures our youth. As we grow older so do our parents, and pretty soon we will have to face the fact that they won’t be there for us anymore.

We push the ones we love the most away, not realizing the regrets we will have in the future. ![]() Throughout my years, I have realized that we all must learn discipline and understand that we have all the time in the world to be an adult, but we only have a few short years to be young. We soon dread the years of growing up and wish we hadn’t taken our childhood for granted. We spend our lives trying to make the days shorter and the years go by faster, but once this wish comes true, we regret our decision and beg time to slow down. We all want to grow up so quickly, but once we reach the peak of our youth, we want to be young once again. ![]()
