be more mature, but not any less playful

This is a thing I’ve been wondering lately and writing about in my blog (Spinster Chronicles) in the context of relationships. How do you be mature, but not loose that something … How not get serious in the wrong way and in the wrong level? I think that in romantic relationships this is a key thing – but it is important also otherwise.

I think it also about being scared. Somehow the fear is something everything in my life seems to be spiralling around. Somebody recommended action against it – but in action one needs to take small steps – as otherwise it may overwhelm and freeze self. It is small steps – little by little as the title of the blog says.

I was told today that i don’t act my age. That i “muck” around to much. In response i said i didnt need to act my age and that i felt like Joking around. I like joking and laughing at silly things. Does this make me Immature?

I believe when i need to be i can be mature.

It seems like the person who made the comment cant take me seriously cause i am always smiling.

Why is it that people think that smiling is not being grown up. Why has society made us think that a stern look be the only way to get the job done?

I’ve been working on this for quite some time now. There is something quite satisfying in knowing that you’re not a complete and total idiot anymore.

I’ve still got more idiot in me than I would like but I’m workin’ on it.
