Evolving into an adult

All of us have that kiddish element in us. The percentage of the childishness varies with individuals. As we grow older, this percentage falls (or may not in some cases :P). But what does it take to be an adult, to evolve into one, to decrease that percentage of childishness??

Being an adult demands more responsibility and gives you more freedom. "With freedom comes more responsibility". So?? Thats some crap the whole world knows. Especially we have heard that so much as a kid. I can recall words from parents, teachers, every year, "From this year you are older, not a kid anymore, you have to be wiser, more responsible, independent and adult-like" but when it comes to the freedom part, somehow I never qualified to be old enough!!!! :D

Jokes apart, I understand being an adult demands you to be matured, responsible. But something that I discovered lately, being an adult also demands not talking about your problems, focusing on them and solving them yourself because no one gives a damn about your problems, they have a lot of problems in their life and are too busy dealing with them. Like a SMS I got few months back "Don't speak about your problems , because half the world doesn't care and the rest is just curious". So in a gist, being an adult also demands you to act God-like, clean, with out problems. Well, that makes me wonder, Does the Almighty have any problems??

To conclude, if not talking makes me an adult that the world demands (or at least the people around me), I prefer being the kid, who constantly annoys the world with the overly cute (or may be the not so cute) wailing ;) At least I get to talk and have a light heart, when the Almighty tries to focus on solving his problems!!! :D

More of meaningless crap coming soon :P
