Another Season

I was stumped by a need to grow up.

Seems like it is time i grow up.

Growing up can mean lesser opportunity to demand for love and attention.

Growing up means learning to give love and attention.

Growing up demands responsibility

I was never ready for it.

I have not grown up.

Yet these days, i noe all so clearly,

It is time Shuyi grows up or learn to do so.

Time to shelter instead of expecting to be sheltered.

Time to care and give instead of expecting to receive.

Time to be dependable instead of being dependent.

Time to own up to mistakes instead of attributing it all to youthful follies.

I hope i will be like my mum,

that i may learn to love and give, to cherish and protect, to desire with patience and wisdom.

It is time to be an adult christian, not simply mere infants desiring milk, it is time for solid food.

I am so relunctant but something tells me it is time.
