What do you call maturity? What does it mean to you? If you are mature you are - ?

I think that when you finally become mature or older you can regret that you didnt let yourself do those things, and tried or attempted to be "more" than you are. If you seek for maturity now - are you sure you dont ignore the good you have inside right now? what is there missing, that you need to try and be? what is it in YOU thats not good enough?

again - this is just something i experience - so of course - take it...only if thi rings true with you


When you try to "be better" - and i am talking from my won experience - you are trying hard to be..and not being natural. and a natural place is something...well...it has to do A LOT with maturity = The Truth of who you really are. without trying to be anything. being whole with THAT excepting and loving THAT = is maturity. from this place you can love otheres.

fear blame....etc...acting out of trying to be mature...because you are afraid that you will regret it later..you know...life fully and truelly...thats it.

I am 24 and believe me - i am still having more moments of maturity and many moments that prove i am far from that!
Thanks for this!
