As an adult, I can/must:
- Work at home
- Be responsible for ... job, house rental, bill payment,
- Drink favorite beer and wine
- Cook meals
- Keep everything in order
- Travel around the globe
- Stay as late as I want (But rarely do I)
As a kid, I love to:
- Listen to Studio Ghibli soundtracks and whistling along,
- Talk to the birds, and snails, and plants
- Jump around hyper-actively when alone
- Watch the star at night
- Listen to the cricket
- Love reading graphical novels
- Enjoy watching cartoons and anime
- Be curious about ... everything, stars, spiders, computers, psychology, ...
- Ask way too many questions
- dream of things, real vs unreal, past vs present vs future
- collect bottle caps, and sea shells
- Stay naked and run around the house
The point is the second list is more lenthy compared to the first one.
Sometimes it pains me noticing I have, no I must grow up and take care of so many things. Responsibility chains me down like the kid must obey to his parent, unwillingly. It is just different that they are chemical substances inside my brain are the ones in charge now, forbid me doing mischievious stuffs.
Free soul is what I am after,
Steel cold chains is what I am offered.
While swimming in the sea of faces,
Against the tide of human race,
An answer now is what I need
See it in the new sun rise and
See it break on your horizon
Oh come on love, stay with me
