4 Obvious Signs You’re Maturing, Not Just Aging

Maturing has really changed my perspectives and priorities. I used to be a social butterfly, so anxious to be accepted and rushing through life to try to pack in as much as I could everyday. Through trial and error, I slowed down and started to appreciate life more.

I spend my time more wisely now, not giving everyone the time of day they believe they are entitled to. I realized that many of my friendships were working mainly due to my one sided effort or because I was providing some good or service.

As I cut people from my life, I had more time for what really matters: family, my boyfriend, and my true friends. Getting older is a true blessing, as long as you are willing to learn from your experiences and work towards a better tomorrow and you.
