As time goes by, and we age, our perspective on life and the things we like usually inevitably change. What are some things from your childhood that you were attached to that you grew out of? I'm not talking just material things either, it could be perspective, attitude, anything like that.
On the flip side of the coin, what are some things/beliefs that you still hold dear from your childhood?
You know, I used to be a real smartass liberal. I was always right, and I would use my circular logic to eventually tire out anyone who tried to debate me. I bucked all tradition, and disagreed/hated anything popular just because it was popular, and I wanted to make myself seem deep and mysterious. I was a flat out terrible person most of the time, but as I aged, I found myself in positions of more responsibility around more responsible people, who I learned from and eventually came to respect. Now, I am a husband, a Dad, and can you believe it, a conservative. It's funny how things can totally make a full circle in your life.
As far as things I never put away, besides games, I still try very hard to help out my community, and try to volunteer at least twice a month to help people that are less fortunate. And, I still collect wrestling action figures. I hate it when people call action figures dolls.
So Escapist, enough of me, I turn to you!
