We're both "adults" here

It was this month that made me realize something in my life. I have grown out off the silly things that I used to do but there are are few things that still remains and one of them is my heart. For many times, my heart had been butchered and fried; served with spice and all that could burn my soul. I found and old poem that I wrote when I started out in college.

Untitled (14th of October, 1996)

As we go through life,
we have a good chance to look around.
See and know the kinds of life that we have found
Journey into your mind
 and see what you are,
travel into your heart
 and feel the thing you are.
We are what we are,
and no one can change it... only us.
Being ourselves is the result of our values and trust.
The kind of life that we went with our own voice
Observe and play a great influence on your choice...

I've forgotten about this poem of mine and as I read it once again, I laughed at the thought that I was more of an adult while I was writing that poem... or was I just pretending? I was only sixteen at that time. Now that I look at things, it's been ten years that pass and I didn't know what I was writing then but only subconsciously. I didn't want to grow up but right now... I am actually ready to take that step what they call “adult-hood”.

Making my own meal, fixing my hair... those were just the tip of the iceberg. I gotta save up again and look forward to my future. Concentrate more on my career and with everything in my life, actually. Funny how it was looking at my past. Some of them are good and some are bad still at the end... it's our own choice that will make our future. So, I say now... think carefully; think wisely; and plan ahead. :)

man.. my writing is abit sucky... I need an editor. :p
