Being An Adult - For Adult Contest

When I was a child, I thought cartoons would become no more in my entertainment list. “You’ll look too innocent,” I always told myself. In my young mind, I thought being a grown up involved only investing, reading newspapers, and raising a family. “Life as an adult is too serious,” I always told myself. Today, everything is different from how I imagined it two decades ago. I finally realized that cartoons, fantasies, and innocence is part of adulthood. “Enjoying simple things in life is part of adulthood,” I tell myself today.
