How can growing up be both exciting and painful?

I would have to say it’s good and bad in the same beat. I think when you are a kid you don’t have anything to worries about life. Life I s very free for you at this time and also makes some of the happiest meroies in your life. You not know hurt and pain at this times you only cry for wants not needs. At this lime in your life everything is giving to you. When you get older that’s when the painful feeling starts to come. You have to start becoming more self working you can’t jut ask for help all the time. It could also be good because you get to do more by your self and really don’t need a lot of people.
