-we fall & pick ourselves up
-we learn from our mistakes & try not to make them again
-we know our good & bad points. Improve the good & try to control or erase the bad
-we experience pain & sadness and become stronger after them
-we reflect on things we have done & find ways to improve
-we listen to advice & judge whether we should accept them or not
-we learn to accept people & things the way they are & appreciate them
-we realise what we want & stick with them, not making changes at every setback or instance
-we challenge ourselves to become better people
-we experience happiness & learn how to keep them
Maturity doesn't come with time. It comes with experience & effort.
Life is short. So live it to the fullest. =)
