What is growing up?


What is Growing Up?

To some, it is getting Older

To others, getting Wiser

It means going to that perfect college to get that perfect Degree,

Working on scholarships to hope to make it Free,

Finding a job that pays lots of Money,

And finding the perfect girl to call Honey.

For me, however, it means none of these things

For me, growing up, means simply being me.
