Maturity Construction

the personification of maturity that gradually takes shape obeys the rite of ancestral paradigms it was already anger, rebellion and hate as if the fact of avoiding the sun stop him from meeting it's fate every caterpillar on the flower sleeps worm and wake up butterfly and going back is impossible see the dark squall that floods the land and then paint it green contrasting with the blue sky or the volcano that explodes into lava which later leaves the soil fertile I seriously looked back and gave up reproaching my own way: were the difficult and emblematic moments those who built the human being that I am today

It's a process, my friend. And sometimes a long and tedious one. Always building on the past, never wallowing in it. Good to give up "reproaching [your] own way" to maturity. Good writing, Marco.

It's almost hilarious that I bring up this topic, as I'm 61 years old. But anyway, I think my adolescence ended too late... lol lol lol
