The Becoming Of A Man IV


On the verge of manhood, the one moment that boys change, like a butterfly stretching and wriggling to be free of it's cocoon, the ending of the pupa stage, is just like the time we transform from caterpillars to coccons...

People do change. I always believe that. I have seen changes all my life. Some to those which I don't even expect.

As we grow, it's no doubt we grow strong, day by day. For boys, we grow taller, stronger, harder, while girls bloom lke flowers from their buds, just like seeing a garden blooming on the first day of spring...

But, don't forget, that although we grow strong, there are those around us who grow old and weak. The willow trees, birch, and maple trees...



Yes. Just like our parents, and even grandparents for those who have them still living...

Yes, they might be slow. Yes, they might be very naggy. But to be a tree they are today, it takes along time and experience...

Why listen to them? Cos one day, we all are gonna be big trees like them, tall and mighty...
