.....on growing up

Was talking to Daffodils today....yes the same Daffodils with whom I keep fighting....we do have our shared sibling moments also [:p]...anyway...and that got me thinking....why do we always dread change?...why do we want to cling to the existing present?....here we were just a little over 18 months ago introduced to this place and we longed to go back....and now when we shall actually go back....some part is looking forward to going back...but then there is that little part which doesn't want to let go....wants to remain a child....but I think that aging gracefully is more important...
