I felt so much older now, so much more responsible. I guess that there were some positive outcomes: I knew more things than usual, and I knew that I really could accomplish anything and everything. But sometimes, all a fifteen-year-old girl wants is to stop growing. She wants time to slow down and eventually stand still where she can be young and inexperienced forever. Sometimes, she simply wants to remain a child. Erica Sehyun Song
About This Quote

I felt so much older now, so much more responsible. I guess that there were some positive outcomes: I knew more things than usual, and I knew that I really could accomplish anything and everything. But sometimes, all a fifteen-year-old girl wants is to stop growing. She wants time to slow down and eventually stand still where she can be young and inexperienced forever.

Sometimes, she simply wants to remain a child. You can’t change the world or change yourself overnight. It takes time for these things to happen naturally.

The passage of time will help you mature as a person and grow as a person, but you won’t be able to do it until you’re ready.
