I make more money than when I had an allowance.
I also spend more money than when I had an allowance.
I get mail now!
Most of the mail are bills.
My parents used to take care of me.
Now there are times I have to take care of my parents.
I have my own place, I play my music, I watch my shoes, I make my own food.
Rent is expensive, and going out to eat really adds up.
All the things you wish for as a kid are real . You imagine crossing into the magic world of being an adult to have freedom. But all of that comes at a price.
However amidst the ups and downs, and in spite of the difficulties that come with being an adult, with age comes wisdom. With age comes the ability to make dreams into reality. Because kids may dream of their big future, but adults get to live it and build it.
Sure, I miss having an allowance and a lack of responsibilities.
But I also can’t imagine giving back any day that I wake up with the opportunity to build the ideas that occupy my mind.
