Writer's Block: Adult Onset

Mar 18, 2009 13:47

Honestly? 20. The first thing i realised when i turned 20 was that my life upto that point was basically preparation for real-life. I don't think you really start your life properly until 20s because you're so restricted and still learning what's what. I'm not pretending that now I'm in my twenties i'm the wise witch of the forest, nor am i belittleling moments of wisdom and clarity when i was younger-but i have not had much freedom and control in my life until now. Not only do i feel more in control, but more importantly, i feel the confidence to control it independantly. I just don't think you get that when you're younger.
Although i am willing accept exception when it comes to younger people who have had to grow up quickly, though i think it's a pity they are forced so quickly out of childhood.
