And Life's like an Hourglass glued to the Table
Everything is becoming so instant. How many people read this? I'm going to guess close to none. And that's okay. But it is this way because we all have more-instant forms of social networking..less truthful ones.
I'm growing up so much faster than I should be. I'm scared. I want to go back to my childhood. I want to go home. I don't want to make stupid decisions so I have to make harder ones down the road. And for the most part, I'm past that. For a long time, I've known actions have consequences. That's one of the first things you learn in school. Suddenly you're in a place where you're not the center of the universe. Learning takes place not only from a book, or now, a smartboard, but in the social context too.
But this....this is different.
In a way my childhood is now unattainable. And it's so lonely. I guess that's the difference, realizing ultimately all you have is yourself. I want to be everyone's childhood friend.
