 Mature is a word that can only be used in circumstances of food, nature and or wine which I don't drink so its not important. Its a word we use far to often incorrectly, none of us are as definition 5 states "completed or perfected" so why chose to define your self as mature? 

This girl is wearing a shirt that will say "under construction" until the day the Lord takes it off. I am striving to be the best in every situation even it it is a hard one and I can act "immature" because thats what I am until I learn how to respond better, learn from my mistakes and try to do better the next time.  I am scared for the day someone tells me I am a mature adult. Push the people around you to be better, but don't use mature:)

gotta get back to stuff that has to get done:)
