Not long ago when she was not so small anymore, people started to call her 'small girl'. why? she was no more small in age. size wise? yes, pretty small, but not small enough to be labelled as small girl. independence? maturity? people say she has got more than enough of those for people her age. but what does she herself think? i bet she does not 100% agree with that.
or was she labelled 'small girl' in hope that she will be, and remain one? small girl: who always does what is told, who always does what is expected, who always listen intently, who always inform others of her actions, who seeks views and opinions.

people around us want us to fly high, yet at the same time worry that we may fall and hurt. thus they want to teach the step-by-step learning method.
but sometimes its not too effective. everyone's got different weight and size, different set of wings, different sense of direction. but unlike these birds, everyone's got different destinations.
