A thought.

I don't think we every grow up.

What I mean to say is, I don't think that whatever feelings and emotions we feel when we're five is any less present than when we're fifteen or fifty. It's more of a matter of how we deal with them. How we react, or don't react. And it all boils down to pretty basic wants and desires, masquerading in the worries of the phases of our life.

Today I realized I was feeling emotions that were akin to the very best of middle school angst, which surprised me because one, I'm in college, and two, I understand that it's nothing to make a big deal over, even though it might bother me from time to time. Which led me to believe that maybe these feeling never go away, they just transform and grow right along with you, subtly residing in back of your brain. So everybody has these feelings, at every age. And although time teaches you how to better confront these feelings, they never truly disappear. Or at least, there is always a chance they can come back.

I'm not really sure where this post is going, I just wanted to get this thought out there before I forgot it.
