Do you miss being a kid?
    #23952393 - 12/23/16 05:53 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)

Life was hard for me growing up, but it was a lot of fun.  Wouldn't say a lot of innocence as much as ignorance.  I didn't expect much from the world and the world didn't expect much of me.  It was easy to hit on mature woman and easier to go adventuring.  Problems were small then and not well understood.  Generally pain free and had lot's of energy.  Addiction was a story and not a reality.  Shit was fun and funny!  Highest hopes were dream able.

Kinda sucks getting older.  My past is no longer forgivable and that limits the future.  I think I lived it right as a kid.  I was a good swimmer and a good friend.

I swam so much as a kid and never had to worry about being fat.  Ate like a pig and had zero worries.  Although I should of been more aware and had worries.  Worries were different back then, usually nightmares.

I also miss having the time to pursue hobbies. Now it's like, gotta make money.

I miss the old days when I could have the time of my life playing with a fucking cardboard box.

I liked Legos and the sandbox.

Hobbies were more model rockets and airplanes.  Spent a few christmas's in a model glue haze!

the key, ime, is to make your hobbies profitable and/or a career.  that doesn't eliminate the stresses that will occur anyways, but it helps keep things in perspective.  that being said, not all hobbies are likely to be profitable, though that is not a reason to not pursue them.



OP:  yes, i miss being a kid.  not so much the teen years, but 4-13.  MTG, warhammer 40k/mordheim, video-games and tv until the brain and body grew numb  (/shudder).  would i ever want to relive those years?  no chance in hell.

Hes an adult, he doesn't have to understand grammar anymore, thats for little kids and nerds

And yes, I do miss being a kid, ages 4-11 were pretty great in retrospect. I hated it back then though, I didn't have friends and my sister and I fought like cats and dogs. But around 12 my family experienced a Lemmony Snicket's-esk (too lazy to look up spelling, I'm an adult) series of unfortunate events that basically steamrolled for the rest of my life.

So I guess I don't as much miss being a kid as much as life not sucking... which I guess for a lot of people really is just being a kid

That's actually spot on. I've already made a business out of what used to be my hobby. But like you said once something turns into "work", shit changes. I don't consider it my hobby anymore, but work that I "have" to do.. or else I can't pay my bills or whatever. But making a living from something you actually enjoy, or even once enjoyed is the shit.

The thing is not everyone has the opportunity to make something like that a reality, right? Well maybe, I guess it depends how driven you are.

I spent my childhood wondering what it would be like to not be where I was. 

I spend alot of my adult life wondering what it is going to take to get me to where I want to go.

The future is a limitless expanse of possibility, the past is concrete.

Apparently you think that making goals and working towards achieving them is a dream, and that turning back into a child is a plausible escape from the nightmare you have found yourself in.

i don't personally consider establishing/achieving goals a dream; i find them to be a 'near-necessity' to gain desires beyond base requirements to sustain my life.  personally, i'm not sure if i have a 'dream' (an ultimate goal?) anymore.  i'm moving on from the remaining, relevant outcomes of my past, and i don't think a future is tangible.  there is NOW, only NOW, and can only ever be NOW. and a trillion+ NOWs have proceeded between the previous sentence and this sentence.  most of us, when it occurs, long for the 'past' not because of what it was, but because we've cherry-picked the precious, warming moments while discarding the bulk of the other things that occured, good or bad, for better or worse.  something else about the 'past', humans have an amazing knack for, purposely or accidentally, remembering events incorrectly from how they actually happened; this makes it easy to believe anything one wants, and can be made easier through practice.  i'm not saying traumas can be completely removed, though they can be smoothed over or forgotten about in the conscious mind.

I miss partying 24-7 at times but as a whole no. I took care of my bed bound gma from age 16 to 21 8-12 hours per night /A.m.  Not only did I rarely party but it was almost impossible to meet women (I was also homeschooled). Adult life is incredibly not fun,tough unfair but the freedom is pretty worth it.
