When you're young, your whole life is about the pursuit of fun, then you grow up and learn to be cautious; you could break a bone, or a heart. You look before you leap and sometimes you don't leap at all because there's not always someone there to catch you. And in life, there is no safety net. When did it stop being fun and start being scary?

Simplicity
Why can't anything be simple? If a professor would ask me this question in class I would surely have a quick response for them and I would boldly raise my hand in the air and say "Nothing is ever simple because some people are irresponsible and only think about themselves". And then Im sure the teacher would look at me like I have some issues, but oh well who doesn't? But my statement would still be true nonetheless. Life would be a lot simpler if maybe other people thought about how their actions (or inaction) affect the people around them. I could be way off the mark here, but I don't think so. I mean think about it. For example, A girl gets a boyfriend and all of a sudden her priorities change and the relationships she used to have with her friends suffer because she is unaware of how her actions (or inactions) are affecting those closest to her. Therefore, the relationship becomes Comlicated, and no longer a simple friendship, because she chose to be absent. I mean I guess you could apply the idea to a different metaphor. Like if you're driving your car and you forget or maybe don't see the red light and you don't stop. SCREECH.BANG. You've crashed into the car in the intersection and then you are no longer simply driving, but because of your irresponsibility, God knows you've complicated the situation in so many ways. And then everyone else is left with the stress caused by your mistake. And yes I hear you out there... people make mistakes. But when you consciously make them, that is where the problem lies my friend. That is where the problem lurks. Irresponsibility is dangerous. it could break someone's bones, break someone's spirit, or leave them to live in an apartment alone.
