Why growing up sucks

The trouble with trying to be an adult, in getting your backside off your comfort zone and trying something new, is this. Once you are done, you still want to rush to mummy and show her your drawing. You still want her to look at the box and two lines you have drawn and tell you its the best damn horse in the world. You want your efforts appreciated, even though you know, and she knows, and she knows that you know, that by this time you should be drawing horses that look ready to jump off the page.

It doesn't suck as long as you have a good mom as mine :)

Jana: You dont have a problem anyway. Your horses really do jump off the page!

Mohsin: :D "Mama" here is a common name. Kisi par bhi resolve ho sakta hai.

Not a teen at all currently; and may get someone running to me with his/her horse drawing soon :). Yet I second (agree to) your opinion.

Being good as a student and a good employee till now, I had teachers and bosses also that I can put in the "mama/mummy" definition. Now being a freelancer/business person, dont have any father figure anymore.

I strongly miss "mama/mummy" to give a pet on my shoulder. :(

That means you are moving towards fatherhood as well as father-figure-hood :)

Hope I will be a good father figure in that case :). Wish you had more details on your profile. Like your thoughts and blog in general.
