I'll be turning 21 in a few days time. I guess most people will feel excited and would want to celebrate this transition to adulthood. I feel neutral about it, almost unfeeling.

What if the legal age was 18? Or 23? Or any other age except 21? Would people still celebrate it with such fervour? Turning 21 doesn't mean make one an adult instantly. It takes grueling life experiences and acquired wisdom to grow. What does it mean to become an adult? Does it mean I have to discontinue some of my activities and/or change my behaviour? I don't know; I myself have too many unanswered questions.

I'll just go with the flow of things. No need to have some big bash or party to mark the day.
