Most important realization of "growing up" 5

A coworker asked me what I thought was the most important think I've learned about growing.. And my answer was something I've known for many years before, but that has been highlighted more and more recently, an understanding that is more apparent each day.. It's simple, that no one ever really "grows up".. We're all just big kids on the same level. Some of us like to pretend we're on higher or lower levels depending on how we project our egos, how we see ourselves based of our social and income status', on how we measure success and what not... But really, as I see it, we're just all children on the same playing field, playing make believe, wearing ccostumes, being silly and/or serious, and seeking truth..
What's the most important thing you've learned about "growing up"?

Don't fuck with other people in life. People suck. Be extremely careful around others, they will hold you to every legal pursue that they can. I have never been sued before but people are "friends" and then one sues another.
Same goes for in the work place. Play by the rules as much as possible as if every thing is completely on record. People will hold you to your every action and use it against you any way they can.
NEVER enter into a business with a friend. NEVER produce drugs with a friend. NEVER grow drugs with a friend. It turns out like shit every time unless you have found some one really cool in life who does not ONLY care about the end result but the process that it takes to get there.
People ALWAYS want the money but they NEVER want the work.
Drug manufacturing takes work, these motherfuckers want the end results but they never want to put the time into it. Fuck em all.

No one owes you shit.

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Great contribution to the thread topic 
Seriously.. have protected sex. I have a friend who knocked up a girl who has turned out to be a absolute nut case of a psycho bitch. Now his life is fucked. However if people practiced safer sex I would not get as many laughs in life.
mmmm have you been reading the suicidal poems thread ? hehehehe

Nothing is static, the world is always changing no matter how comfortable you might be with how things are now, people are always changing whether you like it or not, and everybody dies

@dr wong, no i have not. But yea really. Wear a fucking condom. Could save your life in more than one way.
Also, nothing is permanent, the only constant we are guaranteed in life is change.

Let people be, just be (yourself). Enjoy life, but not at others expense. Listen to elderly people, they have things to say/teach you (unless they are senile/crazy, but you can still learn something). Don't be a dick! (females included on this last one)

My most important is the realization of the "seriousness" in life. Shit is serious. Things are very serious.
You let some one into your house for example. Think about how serious that is. What your saying is "I trust you wont rob me. I trust you wont ruin my things. I trust you want touch my girl friend.". It's very serious.
When saying "fuck you" to some one when angry think about what your really saying, the seriousness of it. Your saying "Destroy you, hate you, ruin you, to hell with you".
Another part of the seriousness is talking about people. People never have illumination of seriousness and they talk shit about people lightly with out real reason. Your ruining reputation. Your damaging reputation. Your making things worse for that other human. You are very serious, things spread lives get changed for the worse.
I have realized the seriousness of life threw drug usage. Particularly magic mushrooms. This is why I say "don't fuck with people". Don't fuck with them, just leave em alone.

You have to make the most of every single day and tell everyone that is close to you how much you love them. Don't be shy to give your family a hug, fuck social 'norms', just fucking do it. You just never know what will happen tomorrow.....although tomorrow does not even exist...

I also don't agree we are all just big kids.
Adults get to do stuff like bukakke and shit. Kids play in sandboxes.
We grow and change, and lock ourselves in little boxes. We continuously lose interest in things that once made us lose sleep at night twinkling over.
Not that bukakke makes me lose sleep at night yearning for that moment.
But things become a lot different as we grow closer to the grave. We either have to constantly chase a new high, whether it be diving deeper into the ocean, climbing higher on a mountain, sky diving, smoking crack, having 75 elderly women pee all over your face, or winning the lottery........or we have to accept the ultimate end and become at peace with it, flow through days like water, accept what comes to us during the flow, and follow that feeling that used to keep us awake at night as kids once we find it again.
The invidual flame in us burns so hot it devours us and blinds us, what fuels it is our pain and grief, and we forget to throw our indifference's and grudges into the flame of the universe for good. We all have a flame. What we choose to hold on to will cause us to blindly wander in spite, worry, fear, ignorance.
A huge difference between children and adults is a reason to hate. And how we choose to rid ourselves of hate. Kids can be as maniacal or as brilliant as a full grown adult, but there's a lot of difference between the two.....really the only similarity is we will never know what's truly going on no matter what........but a 10 year can't go get a hooker to cover up his pain......a 40 year old can.

Everyone has their problems, contrary to what you were brought up to believe because of this child worship mentality adults seem to have, no body gives a shit about yours or anything you have to say or have to care so be decent and dont be a douche because regardless of how important you feel you are all of us are nobody in the long run
Basically sums up my frelings of being an adult

1. Just because you can do something that you want to, doesn't mean you should.
2. Hard work pays off, and there is no success without it.
