Maturity

Maturity is obnoxiously sought out in high school. Almost everyone winces from being called immature, if called seriously. The problem is maturity is assumed to come with seriousness. Of course you can force seriousness upon yourself for no good reason. Why teenagers assume seriousness with maturity, is due to immaturity. They assimilate everything bad about maturity, such as pseudo-seriousness, and activities that adults participate in such as reading books, listening to 'sophisticated' music, and drink teas or dine exquistely- activities they cannot even attempt to understand the depth of at all, content wise, music-wise, text-wise, or flavor wise.

The most absurd part is the fact that their rushing these things. Activities that adults enjoy grow with age and when teenagers force these activities upon themselves, I personally feel ridiculous and embarassed to be around such people. Parker helped me come to the realization that a real mature teenager understands the meaning and connotation of their age and the people he/she's surrounded by. By knowing this, he/she makes the best decisions accordingly instead of assuming the 'responsibilities' of someone much older; their lives are situationally different in almost every way. Another example of immaturity that these 'mature kids' exude is a feeling, or act of elitism. They then isolate themselves to people similar to them- obviously not truly mature people, but pseudo-matures. To isolate yourself in this particular manner is to ignore what is unpleasant in an individuals life for the sake of their own 'maturity'. Who the shit would want to spend time around fools like them? It's honestly too much.
