Day 357: Growing Up

Remember the days when we were so eager to grow up? It's like we couldn't wait to have these responsibilities. No one said that it would be this hard. We were promised freedom not constraints of the society. We became too woke that we couldn't enjoy the little victories of life. Love, money, freedom and power over ourselves are what we craved growing up. But what we have today is far from what expect. It feels like we have a little hole in our hearts where the happiness slowly drips and now we have none. We couldn't wait growing up and this is what we become.

One thing that adulthood took toll the most is christmas. A few days away but still the cold breeze is the only reminder that it is coming. The lights that once made the night sky and day indistinguishable became dim. Some just lost interest of it. Few puts up these lights and others do not wish to decorate anymore. Caroling became a mere business rather than a form of culture. Some only sang the last verses of the song and ask for money. It's like the entire country just lost the christmas spirit where we were all ecstatic about it. Somewhere between the lines of growing up, our culture took toll.
