thought # 28- the difference between maturity and man-children

is that maturity:

  • is favoured and seen as a pleasant characteristic to have.
  • means you can have a decent meal without your "significant other half" making spaghetti beards and finding the repeated use of dinghy in a movie ever so amusing.
  • you can actually have a civilised conversation without thirty minute intervals because your other half is restless and just wants to watch people getting hurt or removing their garments.
  • glues relationships for longer than how adorable or cute his antics, sneakies infront of your parents or lust for fictional virtual/comic book heroines are. 
  • although it can have its cons including the possibility of becoming too serious or boring, means that you don't think life is merely some video game or based upon how many girls you can get in your pants or some meaningless cyclical state of eating, playing and complaining about your second rate shit job (some people may like that, personally i don't). 
and man children/child men:
  • are the opposite. 
its not that i don't enjoy having fun. i mean from that list it must appear as if im some kill joy serious person that prefers saggy tits and dentures as opposed to youthful adventures haha. im just saying, it wouldn't kill you to acquire a sense of maturity in life. and i'm not merely confining this to men (its just another horrible analogy haha). some people should know the value of fun and maturity and balance it wisely (myself included) because you would hate to come to the sad realisation of misunderstanding "cool things to do when you're thirteen" and "cool things to do when you're thirteen but no longer applicable for twenty something year old sadcases." HAHA

before i go, nota bene this thought was in fact birthed out of today's inspiration- it wasn't as random as initially perceived. you see i saw my dear friend murray after over a year and we began to reminisce especially about the silly things we did as teenyboppers, what we learnt and what we will never do again as older people haha. it was a splendid day, missed that guy. so anyway, moral of the thought- be mature... be a man.

love



p.s. james dean, he's handsome and tragic simultaneously. oh how froth-worthy (real mature abi HAHA)
