Snowball theory

Growth is not a ladder.

Growing up —I came to find out, is very much closer to the journey of a tiny, white, and helpless snowball that starts slowily rolling down the tip of a steep and snowy mountain. It accelerates, it free-falls, it off-roads, taking everything it hits forcefully in, getting speedier, fatter, and dirtier in the process.

Bad news, we have been doing it wrong all along; trying to climb the ladder and all.

Good news, now we know how to buckle up, embrace it, and roll on!
