miss the day when my biggest concern was what to dress my barbie doll in
When We Were Young, We Didn't Want to be 'Too Young for Anything Anymore.' Little Did We Know...
Your boyfriend becomes a prick.
Lollipops turn into cigarettes.
'I love you' was only said to mommy.
The innocent ones turn into sluts.
Home work goes in the trash.
High School shows you who your true friends are.
Mobile phones are being used in class.
Detention becomes suspension.
Soda becomes vodka.
Bikes become cars,
Undies turn into g-strings.
Remember when getting high meant swinging on the playground?
When protection meant wearing a helmet?
When the worst things you could get from boys were cooties?
Dad's shoulders were the highest place on earth and mom was your hero?
Race issues were about who ran the fastest.
War was only a card game.
Cheating only applied to games.
What kind of lunchbox you had was the biggest concern.
The only drug you knew was cough medicine.
Wearing a skirt didn't make you a slut.
The only things that hurt you were skinned knees and goodbyes only meant until tomorrow?
the purple crayon broke and mom said you could still use the other half.
our brother ripped a page out of the coloring book that we had worked really hard on.
it was hard to ride a bike with out training wheels but we wanted to look 'cool'
the boys may have pushed us down and called us names, but they could never break us like they can now...
After a while, you learn the difference between holding a hand, and falling in love. You'll learn kisses don't always mean something. Promises can be broken just as easily as they were made, and as hard as it is to believe, sometimes goodbyes are forever.

And we just couldn't wait to grow up.
Gah things are complicated now everything is...why can't we think with the mind of a child. we complicate everything with our selfish ways. seriously its sad. i do it too and it sucks we hurt people we don't mean or out of selfishness. we take crap because we want somthing so bad...we sell our souls for so little...I miss being that little 8 year old running around in my skirt with a run in my tights climbing a tree without a care in the world because i didn't care then if the world accepted me. the mind of a child is a beautiful thing even more beautiful than that is the innocence and naivaty of a child its one of the most beautiful things. its sad how once we reach that certain age were we want to rush it...its and adventure if we will just let it be and appreciate god for this incredible gift of life God had given us...so lets slow down and appreciate where you are right now...no preasure think with the mind of a child and just be. notice everything appreciate it all. there is some motivation for ya.
