Firstly, Happy New Year! (Yes. It's mid-January. I realize this.)
I've missed you, and have A LOT to spill.
But before that -- I have a question of the day post (yeah, yeah, I know. I haven't been writing any of those for awhile.)
Da-da-da-da-da, The Question of the Day -- Yeah!
(Another lame attempt at a theme song. I try.)
Is age really nothing but a number? Or should it be taken into account all the time?
I have the PERFECT picture for this!

I don't think it's possible to post a picture comment... SO I will comment on this later with a post of said pictures.
ANYWAYS, age. An odd word and concept, considering other think we just perceive time in the way society made us view it, there fore our sense of time would be slower if we though that it was slower o.O
Age is a number, a concept, but most importantly a gauge.
It is true many of us grow more mature faster than others, but in retrospect we are all naive until we have experiences, and every single one of us experiences emotions and situations at different times than others. In a sense we it is just a number, but it doesn't change that we have a lot more to learn, it should be a grouping. Oooo.... Such as Pre-teen, baby, toddler, child, young kid, teenager, young adult, college student. Because though we are all on different levels we can only experience things at certain times in our lives, just not at the EXACT same time, it's an approximate level.
When I look back now, with this senioritis, when I was younger I thought I knew SOOO much. And I knew a lot of things about life, crushing, liking, hating, disgust, lust, death, sadness, happiness, and other emotions like that. I didn't though, all those emotions and experiences had complete other levels to them. Things I would have never known, if I hadn't grown up, now as I close in to college student I've had many more experiences and practice with emotions, personal levels, people, and society as a whole then freshman, sophomores, and even juniors, just because they haven'y had the extra year of life that I have. There are many juniors on my emotional level, but they lack in another level.
When you reach the end of your certain grouping, you level out, for the most part, on your emotional, social, and personal levels. True, this is a crazy generalization, but it is in a general population. It's the ideal chart.
Age, now, is something that must be taken into consideration. We must be weary of certain age groups when thinking of certain purposes and jobs. Whether it be a restaurant host, cashier, leader, lover, parent, student, and many other roles. It is a number but an approximate number. It is a track of your years on this earth to consider when you will mots likely die, and take count on your health. Age is something we will always have to take into account and we must not take any offense to older or younger groups when generalized because whether you are ahead or behind the rest of your age group you have to look at it in their perspective, would you think you were a responsible adult when you are clearly a teenager in this day and age?
And that's my two cents, in Thailand's currency XD
XD I really enjoyed that. You need to show me this picture.
