Feeling Alone
Growing up....would you stop it if you could? I'm learning first hand that goodtimes with old friends fades FAST....True life must go on, but lately I'm wishing I could turn back the hands of time. It seems like everyone I grew up with is Dating, Married, or has changed there course of life NOT according to jehovahs will.
I've been a witness my whole life so I know were never really alone...but it sure feels that way sometimes. For example: This past weekend I had my District Convention and I found it to be so.. encouraging but when it came for lunch it couldn't end any sooner for me. I felt like everyone was on the hunt or in la la land. I really miss the old days.

i think watching all the people on the hunt is funny...
if we go ahead in time we will be in the future, but dont let that stop you just keep eating fiber, don't get backed up
i remember being in HS and thinking life was so tough and how it would be perfect when i got out. I'd go back in a heartbeat...
i know how that feels.
I think between 16-20 was great... those were goodtimes,However I've been feeling old. I'm still be my twenties but everyone always seemed rushed and in a panic...exhaleeeeeee, just relax.
Maybe it would be better if I didn't have to work....thats the ticket no work.
don't feel old....seriously look at yourself like a fine wine....better with age. as you grow, you begin to feel this enormous sense of confidence and it's great (as long as you don't become over confident)
Look I'm commenting :-P
Okay people can be pinched at any age so I wouldn't want to go back in time just forward with better friends, like I'm doing now ooooooooooo (so insightful I know) ;-)
11-20 was such a great decade for me
21-30 has started off pretty decent...
Whatever, that's the beer talking. You front. lol
stop touching my butt
Do I dare ask, who touched you???LOL
I did...(again, that's all I wanted to say, but no! less than 15 characters!)
wow, its weird you wrote that today....just yesterday i changed my msn name to say something along the lines of wanting to grow down instead of up
things were so less complicated...now everything is stressful. I seriously think 7 was the most perfect age ever
Its funny... I remember when I was in such a rush to be an adult.Know your dealing with everything else in life, to me carefree thats a true blessing.
yeah, everybody was in such a rush to grow up
i was always the one who said...why grow up? what fun is that? and i guess i'm still thinking that....at least i'm consistent
...you can only fight it for so long though
I had similar feelings this year when I moved out of my comfort zone into a whole different world, as a single adult. And, it stinks! Going to the convention alone, the extent of your association being "Hi, how are you? Good. Talk to ya later." Pretending you had other people to talk to. I so missed the old days, when during lunch at the conventions I talked with my friends so much that I barely took 3 steps away from my seat. Whereas this year, I made so many laps I started to break a sweat! I couldn't wait for the afternoon session to start!
its always weird when i have to do things by myself. i'm always just surrounded by a million people. so i had recently had to start doing different things by myself and i don't like it. maybe just cuz i hate being alone. there was one time i was at my house alone and people were coming over later but it got dark and they still weren't there. i got scared. it was weird cuz i'm not afraid of the dark or TERRIFIED of being alone but i called them and told them how they had to come over right now. that was a very weird night.
