What is Maturity anyway?
Well,this blog goes out to all those who are wondering what is maturity and whether they are mature or not. This is my thoughts ok? and it mayb or may not be a good advise but do please listen to wat i gotta say.
Some ppl might think that how people act is the way to judge a person’s maturity. BUt for me, this has nothing to do with maturity. I can act childish in front of my friends or little kids just to have fun. SOme might call me immature but the point is,i might not act like this in front of others that either are older than me, the people i respect or those who do not me. SO in contrast,these people will think that i am mature for my age and so on. U see where i am getting at? I remember one pastor preached about this b4 , that we humans wear many layers of mask.
Its not right for us to do so but we are humans, we are not perfect. BUt we need to beware that the mask we are wearing will not bring us to our downfall.
Who we compare ourself with is also not one way to tell our maturity. Yep, thats true. Wanna know y? Hmm… let me think how i shud explain this properly. While learning english last year,i learned form my lecturer that we only see what we wanna see and hear what we wanna hear. We will block off the things that we do not agree with and forget about it. I agree with that. Every time i try to negotiate or ask for advise, i only agree with the ones that i myself think is right and totally ignore the others which sometimes seem harder. Its the same with actions. We sometimes only see the negative side of a person and not see the complete package. SOmetimes we see from our first expression that the person is childish and bla bla bla, everything negative but fail to see his mature side. True?
Another one, age does not influence maturity. Maybe a little but not completely… Ppl always associate me as :"Wow, u r turning 20 d, very mature oh, all grown up oh." My gosh, i havent even finish my degree programme. Mayb i am a bit mature because of responsibilities but when u take away those responsibilities, u will see a child in me, still love to play, to have fun…… and etc. I still love to go online and chit chat and what so ever… You can also see it in adults, u give them a night free from their children and work and u see, drunken, laughing adults… This is so true you know. No kidding. U can see some "Datuk" who is rich and famous hanging out with young gals and they are looked up too… Get my point? HAHA…correct me if i am wrong.
OK, here is what i think being mature is. Being mature is knowing when to do the right thing, to know when to act what age, to play when its time to play, to take responsibilities and equal their time to do do other things besides work and home. Being mature is of course being wise. Being wise in what a person can be write in their blog, being careful not to hurt anyone, being careful not to hurt ppl with our actions, being careful not to hurt ppl with our words. That is what it takes to be mature. For me that is….
P.s.: imagine those who suffer from old ppl syndrome, who act like children all over again… THey might once be considered mature…. OH OH OH… it doesnt mean i am mature by writing this blog….. blerkz
