In just a few days I’ll be grown. Just like that. Poof. One day I’m a harmless teenager, the very next a responsible adult. I don’t want this to happen, but I’m helpless to stop it. I can struggle all I want, but growing is not to be stopped.
I’ve grown from a girl to a woman and I’ve learned so much over that time. Growing is good. Growing os progress. Growing takes time. To be grown is to be mature at all times.
Morgan
She began as a bud in the earth,
covered in dirt,
and smaller than a seed.
Suddenly, with certain struggles,
she burst forth from the beautiful disaster.
She has yet to be fully grown.
My only hope is that the world wont destroy her spirit before it can blossom.
I have grown so much in this past year, well past twenty-four years. I now understand growth is what life is about. A journey of growth, learning and living.

The mirror shows me a grown woman standing there, waiting for him. It’s been 26 years. What will he look like, will he be the same sweet soul he always was. Was this a mistake, meeting him again? One look in his eyes and all questions were answered….
Peaceable
grown like the tree in my yard im almost as mature as it is. even though i will never be as tall as it or as wise its there as a reminder of how high i want to reach, the sky i want to grow that high

Many years had passed by since the tiny acorn was planted. It had bloomed and blossomed into a magnificent Oak tree that overlooked the entire town. It had grown with such strength that it overshadowed even the tallest buildings of the town!
I was grown. Only I wasn’t. Grown. I was short. Really short. The only one shorter than me was Omar. I was the second shortest kid in kindergarten. My parents made me wear a tie the first day. I’m a GIRL!
when i am grown, i willl fly. towers do not grow up unless we make them grow. we add bricks. we must add bricks to our body and soul, we eat and pray for the light to come in like trees and plants.
You face mistakes like a man. . . if you’re a man. It’s all I know, so please, no feminism necessary.
ANyway, you face em like a man, you take em on and don’t look back. You step towards your errors and figure that, sooner or later, that mistake will be looked back upon as a moment where you grew.
I’m grown, son.
Kanye or Jay or some rapper would say something like that. I know what THEY meant, but if I say it, it just sounds weird.
I think I earned the right to say it now.
When you are grown you think you can do anything, until you are there, then you realize it is just a dream.
Mary Lou Wynegar
i have grown in so many ways not only mentally but physically. my mind and opinions have grown, my shoes have grown. the people around me and my community have grown. without growth the world would be nothing. Grow, explore, learn thats what life is all about.
Kasey
He looked through the small kitchen window out to the old woman’s garden. He pictured her bending low despite the pain, patting the moist soil down bare-handed. He pictured her murmuring lovingly to the plants, giving them more care than she’d ever given him. He shook his head, driving out these images. He turned to the door, grabbed the last box of stuff that smelled of old lady, and locked the door behind him.
i love one professor will says , “are all grown ass women and grown ass men.” hopefully i will get one more class with him before i graduate in June 2011.. he is a full of knowledge but like he said ” the more you know the

I had grown up in this town. I knew every street and alleyway. It wasn’t a large metropolis, by any means. But this time of day, it should be bustling with activity.
I have grown. The end came before I knew it was coming, but now that it’s here, I realize where I went wrong, and in that I have growth. I remember everything; every tear, every laugh, every painful mistake. Every blush that ever crossed my cheeks still burns in my mind, and I know that everything will be alright.
Kaitlyn Stocker
We have grown to fast in some ways, to slowly in others. Mentally, physically, spiritually, emotionally. Never at the same pace. Never to the same stage. But we have grown. Iven when we were not ready or didn’t want to grow, there it was. There we were.
Paul
i have grown so much in the past year. i can’t even relate in any way to the person that i used to be. and i am so happy about that. i am so thankful that i have been transformed. and that i have grown.
Alex Athanasiou
I think I’ve grown so much just this past year. But often I look back and think it queer, that every day brings with it some new task, that pushes me to sharpen skills I lack.

growing up has been such a hardship for me…losing my father has forced me to grow up beyond my years in such a short time.
Running a has bussiness has done the same thing but to a less extent.
miss you dad!

juliana
My daughter has grown from a loving, adorable child into that monster many know as a teenage girl. She butts heads with me on a more than regular basis and wants to push the envelope as far as she can. Her witty comeback is often “I’m 15!” to which I reply “When did 15 become the new 21?”
Andie
I’ve grown lately. Grown up because everything that has happened I had to grow up.
Amahdi
It is hard for me to believe they are all grown with lives of their own that have nothing to do with me. They have outgrown me and sprouted days and nights that wear odd outfits and play tunes I never knew the words to.
Nancy O'Neill
when i was young i wanted to be grown. i wanted to be tall and smart, confident and beautiful. i wanted to live out my dreams, be on my own, fall in love, be a success. someday when i am grown i’ll see these things, i’ll know these things, i’ll be these things. someday i will be grown.
All grown up. My son. It seems like just the other day he had feet so small that i could fit both of them in my hand.
JL
She never really grew up. Years passed and freinds came and went, but she stayed the same. She never changed, not even a little bit. She never had, not since her little sister died. She was killed, they said, by her parents.
She would never get the chance to grow up.
Katherine & Co
Grown up. Peter pan. is it really neverland in real life, or is it always land because we always have to grow up. hmmmmmm

It’s strange how quickly time moves when you’re not watching its passage. One moment you’re a child confused by adult things and in a blink that world has changed into one which is at once comprehensible and yet somehow more confusing than ever before.
Most people think they are grown, but they really are not. For example, take the 12 year old girls who go around wearing short short clothes with their boobies hanging out. You are not GROWN you are 12 go play with a barbie or something.
jeee
She’s all grown up. That’s the first thing she thinks when she sees her daughter slide gently through the room. Everyone is looking at her, caught by her beauty, that inner light that always marvelled Estelle.
Margot
I have grown. Grown from a baby to a man of 20 years of age. I am an adult, voting and allowed to do drugs and abuse alcohol. Voting is the only one I do.
Wes
is the man who can look in the mirror and know who he is. grown is the man who can leave behind something that is good for something that is better. grown is the man who realizes, that he hasn’t learned that much. grown, is that man.
josiah
Once upon a time, there was a girl who was really fat. She liked to eat burritos, cookies and one barbeque chip. It made her grown up. She was shocked to see how much she had grown.
morgan
Lot’s of things happen in my life. Lot’s of things happen in everyone’s lives. These things help us to grow. At least if we take hold of those opportunities.
when you are grown, you have developed from being a baby to a child to a teenager to a young adult to an adult, and eventually into old age. being grown means you have matured and developed, become the person who you are, and lived your life. that is what it means to have grown.
zora
look how much I have grown and lear and accepted and fought for. look what I can do and be. look at what I have grown from your bitterness and lack of faith. just look.

I have grown into a magnificent person. Everything that I am, body and mind, is an accumulation of what I have grown to be.
