Just due to different circumstances in my childhood, I wasn't able to have a regular kids life after the age of nine. So I feel here and there I need to try and make up for it. :)
I find as I grow older that I still think I'm in my twenties, and it's hard to get out of that mindset. Sometimes I just let it go. It can be peaceful.
I didn't really have hard times, just ones that weren't in my best interest years down the road. It is good for those who may have to provide guidance. :)
I can't explain it any more than, I don't know what it is I'm supposed to do ( I mean they don't give you a guidebook when you come back). But I try to help someone everyday if not more. :)
