At 16 you think you're grown up already, you think you know everything. Has anyone ever heard of a paradime shift? It's where all of a sudden you wake up and see the world from a totally different perspective, it all feels different and suddenly you think you understand it all now, but in most likelyhood, you will have several paradime shifts in your life. I think it's all a part of learning lessons and growing wiser. My mother just passed away in April from cancer. I believe her death has caused my paradime to shift and look at the world from a different viewpoint.
