Ask yourself the following question: what is the thing you craved the most as a child? Well, apart from that toy you liked so much at the store. Either our inner child comes out to play and makes all things possible, or we mold our characters and events from our own experiences, or our dreams of wanting to experience.” – Judith Kohnen, One Chance, One Moment

If by growing up you mean allowing the adult within me to abandon the child within me, I have no interest in such a horrid proposition. The eyes that sparkle in awe and amazement as they see love, magic and mystery in the most ordinary things.” – Henna Sohail Yeah so working is for the birds. OK, I actually like my job and I’ve had some great jobs before (and a couple not so great ones) but overall, who really wants to work? You don’t realize how nice it is to have your only real “job” be to pass your classes/get good grades and to have fun. I never understand why people are so pumped to get out of college. STAY IN COLLEGE KIDS. Stay there forever if you can. There’s nothing for you outside of college. OK, again, I’m dramatic but you get the point. The Feeling That You Haven’t Followed the Right Timeline

Fun fact, there is no exact path any of us should be on. There is such a myth that we should all have it figured out or have a family and kids by a certain time and that’s bullsh*t. We start to get older and begin feeling like we haven’t done something right and it’s terrible! Just remember, you are doing you and as long as you aren’t harming yourself or others, WHO CARES what people think about your path. Newsflash, No One Cares About You… I agree, in this evil society, being grown up is complicated. Life is not like the rosy picture we thought it was when we were children. But seriously, it’s not a trap. Childhood is the most beautiful things to happen in our life. We can be happy with the simplest thing, our thoughts and expectations are simple. We take things very lightly, and we do not get hurt easily. But, when we are grownup we worry. Also, we face problems, failures, and humiliations that may damage us to the core. Y’all do not understand how good you have it in your teens/early twenties when it comes to metabolism! Yes some people have it hard when they’re young and some maintain that great metabolism when they’re older but the majority of us experience a drastic decline in metabolism sometime after 25. Mine happened around 28/29 and it was quite honestly the WORST THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED TO ME. I’m dramatic, I know. It is honestly awful to go from eating whatever the hell you want and then waking up one day and realizing you can’t do that anymore. Hi, I’d like to Sleep In Again. Thanks.

We nurture our creativity when we release our inner child. Let it run and roam free. It will take you on a brighter journey.” – Serina Hartwell Learning to embrace and savor rejection is one of the best things that entrepreneurs can do. Launching a startup is the time to find your ever-optimistic inner child again.” – Alejandro CremadesThere is always a feeling of not being fulfilled, no matter how much you achieve, because the inner child’s needs are not being met.” – Yong Kang Chan, Parent Yourself Again: Love Yourself the Way You Have Always Wanted to Be Loved

By staying open-minded and listening to the needs and desires of your inner child, you open yourself up to the possibilities of anything and everything.” – Kim Ha CampbellJokes aside, it was most probably to grow up and be an adult already. How often do we hear children say “ When I grow up, I will…“. It’s as if adulthood is this long-awaited stage when everything will begin for us, finally. We wait for it so anxiously until it does happen, eventually. Of course, nobody can remain a child forever, such is the way of life. However, throwing your inner child away might be one of the biggest mistakes you can make! The endless list of do’s and don’ts handed down while growing up, gradually and unconsciously distance us from the inner child.” – Santosh Joshi When we practice self-compassion, we look after ourselves just as though we are nurturing a small child. If instead you mean to let each enhance the other at the exclusion of neither, I have every interest.” – Craig D. Lounsbrough
