I asked my mum the other day what it feels like being an adult. Her response, I have no fucking idea, I've just been pretending I know what I'm doing for the last 40 years

“Yeah, but the truth is we never really grow up. We just masquerade as adults because that’s what we’re expected to do.” I love that quote. Oh boy! Hah ha!
No one is pretending. Being an adult simply means responsibility. You take on responsibilities, you take responsibility for your actions. you do the right thing. Adulthood isn't the amassing of knowledge - having everything figured out. It's simply not being a whiny, it's not fair, it's not my fault, someone hold my hand, do it for me, I'm shiny and unique, idiot.
