"i have to grow up"
this has been reoccurring in my mind again and again since last week.
people always tell me that i am a very real person.
oh well, to me... it is one good attribute to be real..
cause personally, i hate people who pretends.
i mean, who doesn't?
but as of last week....
i realised that being real or rather, too real wasn't something too good.
that is why, i wanna grow up!
in this world of reality, being too real might invite much troubles upon yourself.
when i do not know something, i will ask... i won't pretend that i know.
when i am stress, i show.. i won't pretend that i am okay.
when i know i can't do it, i will confess... i won't pretend that i can do it.
but apparently, all these 'realness' would give people a wrong impression.
frankly, i can put myself into their shoes... i somehow can understand why people think the way they think.
i am not stupid..
yes, i may not know much, i may not be as bright as many...
but please do not assume that i know nothing.
actually, i really do not like it when people are too over protective over me.
i may feel relieve that people will cover what i cant do for me, but eventually, i will realise that this isnt helpful at all.
thats because the more people cover for me, the more it shows how incompetent i am.
in the long run, i will still find myself knowing nothing because everything has been done by others.
i would be grateful if i am given more chance and explore and make mistakes.
do not just throw me into the pool and struggle to death.
show me how to swim first and slowly let me go.
i don't believe in the tactic of throwing one into the pool and see how they can survive.
i strongly believe in slowly letting things go and eventually that person will survive.
i may not learn fast.
i may be blur and forgetful.
i can be clumsy.
but i am not stupid.
i am not a kid.
i will grow up.
grow up in a way that there are times, i don't have to show my 'realness'.
i dont have to fake anything either.
just learn to keep quiet, learn to keep my cool.
when things happen, i will just keep my cool and deal with it courageously.
