Growing up is never the accumulation of age, but the abundance of the soul and the maturity of personality. It is like the process of a sapling becoming a towering tree after going through wind and rain, not only in the growth of the trunk, but also in the deep roots of the root system, the flourishing of branches and leaves, and the perseverance in the face of the vicissitudes of time.
Growing up truly means the ability to think for yourself. It is no longer just about being indoctrinated by other people's ideas, but learning to examine and speculate about the world around us, dare to challenge authority, dare to question conventions, and form our own opinions and positions. This independence is like a tree breaking through the ground and looking for the direction of sunlight, and only in this way can we thrive in the complex jungle of society.
Knowing that responsibility and responsibility is an important sign of growing up. In life, we need to take responsibility for our own lives, take responsibility for our own choices, pay for our mistakes, and be willing to take obligations for our families, friends, and even society. This sense of responsibility is like the roots of a tree deeply rooted in the soil, supporting the vitality of the whole tree, so that we can still stand tall when we experience the wind, frost, rain and snow of life.
Learning to understand and tolerate is also a sign of maturity. Understanding the difficulties of others and accepting the diversity of the world can make our hearts more broad, like a big tree to accommodate a hundred birds, and tolerate every passing wind and every falling leaf. This kind of life is calm and heavy.
True growth is also reflected in emotional richness and spiritual freedom. We know how to cherish our emotional connection with people, while maintaining a space of tranquility and introspection deep inside. Like the big tree standing on the earth, it not only absorbs the essence of heaven and earth, nourishes its own life, but also gives green shade to pedestrians, so that the vitality and wisdom of life blend with each other.
To really grow up is to gradually form self-awareness, learn independence, responsibility, understanding and tolerance under the baptism of the years, so as to shape a spiritual world with both depth and width, so that we can be said to have truly grown up in this world.
