“But I’m Warning You. Once You’re Grown Up, You Can Never Come Back.”

But, why…

But why do you want to grow up so fast?

But why do you want to give up your play-toys for taxes and spreadsheets?

But why do you want to give up a full night’s rest for two-hours of sleep and a cup of coffee every morning?

But why do you want exchanged your carefreeness for responsibilities?

But I’m warning you. Once you’re grown up, you can never come back.

Falsely yours,
Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
