"When I knew I was growing up"


There was a time where I knew I became an adult

It was not me turning 18 knowing I can vote

It was me learning that I can tolerate people

Talking about my future and having a better idea on what I would like my future to be

I knew I was growing up when I started changing my mindset on things

Having deeper conversations and deeper thoughts

Being able to sit at the adult table and have adult conversations

I knew I was growing up once I realized that I was not a kid anymore
