Metamorphosis....

Comeon Sugee grow up!! .... When will you grow up???... how many times would I have heard this, umpteen times maybe (or in scientific terms X^infinity ; where X >1... Wow! Look at that one, If only I were Einstein this equation would have been famous....Sigh!)
I was sipping my evening coffee at my usual fav spot in the gardens when a butterfly settled on me thinking i were a flower( romantic or was it too melodramatic i never got to know) and suddenly this word "metamorphis" emerged from the back of my otherwise sleepy brain. I had a vague rememberance of studying the very same phenomenon in some biology texts on how a luva becomes pupa in turn becomes a caterpillar and then a butterfly!!!In some ways we are blessed to have the same form the day we were born to the day we die otherwise it would be very difficult...imagine a baby becoming a kitten then to something else then to something else...oops im lost!!!
But definitely we become mature as we grow up, or do we? If I ask myself, i still watch my fav cartoons, I still sleep till 10:oo am everyday as if i didnt have any work to do, i still love eating chocolates..... But actually metamorphosis in terms of 'homo sapiens' means to become mature..We all become mature, well it might take seconds, days, years and some dont grow up for their lifetime. Becoming mature may be not throwing tantrums, not shouting on somebody who was just now standing on your leg and behaving as if your leg was one of his favourite places to step on, or controlling your urge to stop yourself snatching the icecream from your neighbour's hand. Or it might just mean in simple terms becoming an adult...Now iam running out of ideas and sentences so let me stop at that and lets continue sometime later..
