I was growing as an apple on a tree, fast and well.
But as an apple, one day I feel down. I am now going to tell you what happened.

It was like that time in your car when we got high and smiled.

We are constantly growing. It never stops. We are always learning. Tht never stops. I don’t know what this anguish is. Why did I suddenly feel so confused when I turned 13? Why
Rosie
i’ve never felt more stunted in my growth than i do now. both physical and mental. I’m an overgrown child. Mature in appearence, deceiving many. But my mind is still in my teens. When will I catch up?

pains which hurt to the bottom of our souls. but we climb and climb to not feel that bottom anymore which is a disaster and damn near impossible to do since the climb is so long but we find help a long the way and sometimes we see the light and sometimes we slip and sometimes we can’t move at all and sometimes

growing is a fun activity. You can grow plants, vegetables, herbs. Even a boyfriend! I could use that because I don’t have a boyfriend, and this one wouldn’t be quite so demanding because I grew him myself, therefore he would be what I want him to be.

growing always. im waiting for my hair to grow out. i cut it. one morning i just woke up with an ultimatum: get a tattoo or cut my hair short. i chose the latter, a tattoo felt too permanent. although i once met a girl named frankie that had a tattoo along the inside of her ring fingers. that was cool, just like her name. cool.

I remember having “growing pains” when I was younger. The strange tension and restlessness I’d feel in my legs was the result of growing, or so I had been told. It’s strange to me that your nose is always growing through your whole life.
grow out of green, the color of growth and renewal, starting over every spring.

A growing boy. They eat and eat and grow. Apparently girls don’t grow because you never here this phrase for them.

when I was growing up I had a little puppy named Sammy. It was a fantastically cute little golden retriever puppy. It even stabbed my big brother in the arm with a pencil once. Then one day she went to visit some friends and I didn’t know why. All I remember is looking through the window, staring at her getting in the car and waving as she looked longingly up through the window.
Kristin Zetterholm
growing up isn’t something I want to do.
“I’ll never grow up.” that song from Peter Pan.
Then there’s a Peter Pan Complex.
My friend Chris has something like that…Fairy Tale Complex.
He wants to find a woman and live happily ever after with her.
I think we all have that complex.

plants on my balcony, trying to combat the effects of high rise, over populated city living, get in touch with nature again, because being a nature child means having fresh parsley and basil on hand.

My stomach is growling. My watch ticks so slowly, surely there is a problem with the battery. It was running much faster yesterday at the movies. Much faster. Today my hunger is growing while time is slowing.

The growing pain from his new wisdom tooth left Charlie miserable. The ache seemed to cut relentlessly into his cheek, and his family could not afford the necessary surgery to have it removed. He would have to suffer through.
Perhaps this was where the wisdom would come in.
Chuck Meacham
There’s a growing surreality about this place; I can feel myself disappearing as I walk further and further down the corridor. I’m not quite sure where I’m going, and it’s a stretch to remember where I’ve been, but it’s interesting, at least, and that’s something new. Escaping my daily life has been my dream for three years now, and it’s finally coming true.

Growing up is hard. I want to lay in the grass and play pretend with my friends, but we’re not supposed to do that, now.
kim
growing, all the people growing, can’t stop ’em. it’s wonderful
ana
growing up is hard to do-it’s weird being an adult child-the roles and dimensions should/do change, but then what about if your parents don’t change along with you? they should have a class for both parents and kids about changing the relationship as both grow up.

When she put the seed into the ground and turned away, I expected a burst of green to break the soil, but instead there was just there. She got the watering can and rained a little upon the spot. I looked for the explosion of leaves, yet the ground stayed grounded. I was growing anxious, then she said Patience and entered the house, and I thought Miracle-Gro my ass.
Brian Slusher
And it sat there, slowly growing, a minute amount,not enough so that anyone could see but it know. That little green plant know that it was growing and knew that one day it would be a tree, a great big tree. It would tower over all the puny little plants and would be perfect, perfect in brown and green with leaves the colour of emeralds, the envy of the tree world.

when i was a young boy, my father took me to an amusement park and let me play with a mood swing.
He told me “Son when you grow up…”
it’s not my favorite word like I was hoping.
I wanted radiation
not growing
growing is something
where you slough off dead skin
and change gradually
into something alien
People always ask how tall I am
I answer with a tone of boredom 6’5″
but nobody yet has gotten
how bored I am after saying it that way
they talk amazed even still about me
after I’ve ducked away
I haven’t grown since 17
At 18 I had a dorm room with a roommate
at 40 I have an apartment without one
I’ve moved a grand mathematical total
of 25 blocks in 22 years.
Haven’t grown
no growing
don’t want to.

I’m growing my own food from now on, ever since I heard it was better for you. It was a lot harder to do than I’d thought. Growing veggies was the easy part, fruits and herbs fell into the same category. But have you any idea how hard it is to grow a meat tree? A lot of genetic splicing went into that one and even so, the fruit of the steak tree doesn’t taste exactly like a steak. Close, but still not the real thing…
Damo
Everybody grows and growing is a part of life which no body can resist and growing is good. It also means adapting, changing and having ur own ideas. this I can see in my son. he is 2 and half and he is growing everyday and every minute and second

Growing is something people should always strive to do. At least, that’s the advice I’m here to give. What was that? No, silly. Don’t you know just how hard it is to take one’s own advice? Not only hard, but exhausting!
megan
I feel like I have grown so much over this past year. The relationships that have grown, the way that I have matured as a young woman, as an actor, as a writer, and as a person. I feel as though I have made big steps in growth towards my future, and I look forward to it.

carly
im growing up in this world of sick and nasty politics of sex and drugs and bad decisions, of dysfuntional families of crazy actions and horrible people. it wouldn’t be my world if there wasn’t any bad in it but it would be better if i could cut it all out.

First we are but a few cells, being cultivating into millions of cells. Then we are born in to a harsh cold world into the loving arms of our parents. We continue to grow until we reproduce a life to mimic our own, only hopefully better than we were.

the art of growing vegetables for self-sufficiency. we need to be able to grow our own food again. our culture is this continuous game of dependency, with no real back bone of creativity and appreciation.

I feel taller. Bigger, faster stronger. I’m always growing. Not up always, sometimes out. I feel my mind and skills increase. Life is growth. My heart grows. My journey IS growth. As I grow, I get more beautiful. The world’s energy is growing.
