A Slight Return

I was faced with a conundrum today at work. What is better? To remain a child, or to be an adult?

I thought about this for a while and thought that it truly was a difficult thing to decide. After some thinking, I decided that it was worth my age-old method of blogging. Just felt right. So here goes.

Pros and cons! That's what it all boils down to, right? We take the good, weigh it against the bad, and whichever options has the most of the best, that's what we choose. Now, I know you think "David, this is silly, one day you HAVE to be an adult, so this choice is technically moot." Not true, I say. Although, I do use the term "child" fairly loosely. I just mean more about the responsibilities that adults have vs kids. Kids have such fun, no worries Adults have so much freedom, but so much responsibility. So I don't know. I've always thought of myself as a fairly childish person in terms of my actual age. I may be 24, but I act around 21, sometimes not even that. But sometimes I get frustrated by certain responsibilities required of me as an adult. I just want the freedom to live, to choose, and to do as I see fit. But then again, that's the part I like most about being an adult. To have the freedom to do as I please. To be the boss and say "This is what I'm doing today, suck it." So I guess when it really boils down to it, adult or child, I just want my freedom. I want control. I know it sounds, childish to want that, but I don't think it is. It's an inherit part of our lives as humans to make our way in life, and how can we do that if we don't take charge?
