She told me: “if you come across a gray candy, then you can make any one wish, and it will come true right away. But you must think carefully before making a wish”.
Those who eaten m&m's know that there are no gray candies. My aunt deceived me. But I stubbornly searched for a gray candy in every pack. I bought these candies all the time to find the gray one.
And then, sitting in the car, I thought, what wish would I make? And then I definitely decided that I wanted to be an adult. I want to buy sweets myself, not to depend on anyone. Do what I want. I remember how I was tossed between the desire to be an adult and travel the world. But I chose to be an adult.
Now I'm 25 and I still choose the first option. Being an adult for me does not mean being an adult by years.
For me, being an adult means being free, conscious. Be able to analyze, reflect. Learn to control my feelings and emotions. Be the master of your life. To be free.
I believe that the only important thing that you should instill in your children (if you have them) is FREEDOM! You must let them be free. Explain to them that no one should ever infringe on their freedom and choice. I think that when they become adults, they will be infinitely grateful to you.
It's great to be free. Be free from the opinions of others, be free from stereotypes, from society. To be free is to live your life 100%. Freedom is happiness!
P.S: But only if you know what to do with your freedom 😉
