MATURITY

On this post, I wanna tell you ‘bout maturity. What do you think ‘bout that? Do you think you’re a mature person? Well, if you’re confused with my questions, I’ll give you some explanations ‘bout maturity. I personally believe that maturity is perseverance and the capability to face unpleasantness without becoming bitter.

Perseverance means keep on trying when you get failures. For example, you want to get best score on math test eagerly. So, you study harder and harder every day, but the result of your test isn’t as good as what you wish. If you give up because of that, it means you don’t have perseverance. On the other hand, if you try and try again to get a better result, it means you have perseverance.

Not getting a best score on your math test is an unpleasant thing, right? If you get an unpleasantness don’t let it controls yourself. As a mature person, you must have a capability to face unpleasantness without becoming bitter. Becoming sad when getting a failure is common thing, but don’t lose your head because of it, just try to get up early. You can’t change your failures, if you just cry and cry every day, right? Come on, bud! Only a child always cries when she/he gets failures, while a mature person will gets up early to change her/his failures.

In conclusion, you are mature if you have perseverance and can face your unpleasantness wisely. Do you have both of these? Who knows? Just yourself knows it. Not me or others.
