do you ever stop growing up?

I don't think you should, but I think you can.

if you stop growing, you start stagnating.  not fun.  you should never 
stop.  :)

I agree with Meg!!!!

no you never stop.....

No, you never stop growing up.  My 102 year old friend says she doesn't 
really feel grown up, or any different in her mind than she was when she
was 25 years old (in 1917!).  I think every experience we  have helps 
us to grow, or grow up, or whatever.  Now, if we're talking about 
growing up in the sense of "maturing", I know of several people a good 
bit older than myself who still have a great deal of growing up to do.
I'd like to believe that they are *late bloomers*.

what is blooming, though?  i am but still a bud!  :)

i know that, but i want to spend time i this form, because once you 
bloom, eventually you fade away, and dry out.  :(

Why?  Who ever said the comparision had to go that far?
Maybe we bloom and if we bloom the way we were meant to we will
be in bloom forever.... hope so.

yes when you are old and unable to take a piss my your self

I don't intend to be old.  Something good is going to happen before i'm old.

age is a state of mind.

i know i said that before, but it's worth the saying again.

yes, I agree Meg.

Feeling and being are too VERY different things.
Sometimes it's hard to know the difference.

but remeber that society also playes a HUGE part in how old you are ..
requardless how young you may fell....there are sytill going to be people
younger who want you to be old so they can take your place.....

so society forces you to become old........

Piss on society! <he said from the heart>

Oh, just thought I'd say hi!

Hi snuggle! (I just don't feel right saying that...)

Define grow up.  I think we can stop getting more mature, w/o losing 
our ability to grow.  Too much maturity is bad.  I still need more of
it at the moment, tho.

flem, what do you mean when you say that too much maturity
is bad?

Re #7: Never trust anything morrisey says, just stuff a rock in a pack of
cigarettes and throw it at him. I know someone who did that.

I'll never stop growing up that's for sure. My tastes will always be changing,
maturing, if you will. But right now, I'm happy being immature.

well, just that if we become too organized and structured, which is 
what maturing mainly means to me right now, then we stagnate.  I know 
people whom I consider EXTREMELY mature that I would never wnat to be
like.

I disagree, flem. I think that people stagnate only when they never
"let their hair down." I think people can grow, mature, and develop
without stagnating, but rather creating more opportunity for them-
selves because of their experience.

Yeah, but if they grow so "mature" that they don't want to let their 
hair down, then they are too mature.  That's what I'm almost afraid of.
I don't think I'm in much danger of that anytime soon, tho.  :)

GLAD TO HEAR IT, GOOD BUDDY!! :) :) :)

flem:  you don't have a small furry animal again, do you?
you better not!  ;)

No.  I'm not really planning on it, either...I think I'll just let it grow
and do what it wants.  I might put it in an animal to work out, but that's it.

Did flem get a haircut, or something?  I haven't seen him in a while.

Two bits.

I got it cut off for senior pics.  It's almost back to its former glory, tho.
It's curlier now, 'cuz it's even instead of the front being way, way longer
than the back.

(goat cheese... cheese curls... curly hair... hairy chin... goatee...)

TaDaah!  A new form of tautology!

if yo get the furry animal back...you are DEAD!!!!!!!

(there are a lot of ways for a guy to die when meg's around, aren't there?)

you never know, greg...you knoever know.  :)

one never does know...

One really never does know.

#37, oh I thought this line of responces was avalivable to Greg's only...<G>
