Growing Up or Just Getting Older?

Happy birthday to me!!! Yep, it's my 17th birthday on August 15th. Finally, with all laughs, tears, smiles, happiness, sadness, hurts, sweat, ups, downs, sweets, miseries and everything from the most emotional until the really-ordinary things in my life, I reach my age of 17! Whoa, kinda excited because it means I'm mature enough and, I got my identity card :D Well, I don't know exactly why everybody says 17th birthday is sweet because I think every birthday is sweet. Yep, every birthday is sweet because it shows us how God is still loving us by giving us life until today, and actually it's more like an alarm for us that we're getting older and older. But we're not only getting older but also outta grow up. I've ever seen a line "growing up or just getting older?" in my English course textbook and I felt like ah-yeah-it's-true. Yes, everybody outta grow up and not just getting older! And so, I declare this in my very deep heart:

I WILL GROW UP AND NOT JUST GETTING OLDER. I WILL REMOVE ALL MY BADNESS AND KEEP UP MY GOODNESS! I PROMISE TO FIND MYSELF STANDING UP CONFIDENTLY, REACHING ALL MY DREAMS
