My parents don’t understand me. What’s new though it’s the same with everyone they just don’t get us. When there young they think about the same things we think about today. They think of their futures and how they’ll act when they grow old. They say were not going to be like our parents. But after they have children there morals change, their ways of living change. They become parents... the thing they feared the most when they were growing up. The thing we fear the most today, I don’t want to do that, but I think its inevitable. It’s the way it is. We think about our lives and how they’ll alter as we grow up... we think about where well be 5 years from now, 10 years from now, maybe even 20 years from now. But every year our plans undergo a transformation. We lose friends and we gain friends. Your life switches from being the fun loving kid you are today to a working mother, trying to manage your job and find time to read your little girl a bed time story before she falls fast asleep from a long day at preschool. Soon that same little girl you read that bedtime story will be going on her first date and meeting the guy of her dreams, her soul mate. Our lives change dramatically from day to day. Its life. You get lost in school, relationships, and work and you lose sight of the things that are really important and the people who will always be there for you. Why cant I just be a kid forever and not have to worry about any of this useless stuff?
