Growing Up or Growing Old

Growing up is quite different from Growing Old. Unfortunately, people often find it difficult to distinguish both concepts. The quote from Charles Theodore "Chili" Davis, a Jamaican-American former professional baseball player, says it all. "Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional."

So basically, Growing up means that you have gained a better understanding of the world,
your relationships, your goals, and how you can influence how life treats you. Growing old on the other hand means that things are happening to you and your true desires remain unexplored.

Growing old simply means you are adding numbers to your days on earth while Growing Up means adding some intellect or intelligence to yourself.

So before you  start "so mo age ni" - "do you know my age" shouting, take a chill pill cos no one is really interested in the numbers.
