just curious..i keep reading about people wanting Prince to go back to doing this or doing that, acting like this or acting like that, saying this or saying that..but really..are any of us still doing the same things we were doing 25 or even 5 years ago? isn't this all part of the maturation process? if i was stil doing the same thing i was doing in 1984, i would be called immature, irresponsible and in need of psychological help

im no where near the same person i was a year ago, probably not the same as i was six months ago, and im sure i wont be the same a year from now.... or at least i hope im not. every year should mean something different for you and you learn different lessons along the way.... to remain the same would be cheating yourself.

i wasn't even born..i was negative 9 old..

Great thread.

No. I went from an insecure, guilty, ashamed and fearful child who demanded that women stay in their place to a sure, shameless, fearless man who understands that women deserve to be in control of their lives just like men.

In certain ways I'm exactly the same. Same heart I've always had. In many ways, I've flipped a bitch and have gone in the exact opposite direction of where I was once headed. I have no regrets and am very happy with myself and my beliefs

25 years ago i was still in diapers.















so yes, i am.

actually, i was thinking about this just the other day. i know i've definitely changed since my daughter was born. and the couple years before that, my life experiences definitely . . . seasoned me.

i didn't exist 25 years ago....

Yes, I was 7, but still the same person... I'm pretty sure.

25 years ago from this month i would have been 4 months old My thoughts on life would have been 'uh bugguhboodeebuh MAMA! uh boodeegoolahlooh DADA! uh buhbuhbuhbooooo EEHEEHEEHEE!!' Oh and thinkin bout my last meal and how at ease i feel when i finally poop in my nappies (diapers).

I'm definately a different person than I was 25 years ago, hell even two years ago. My children taught me patience and the friends I've made have taught me love and understanding.

Now, if I could just stop letting internet bullshit piss me off, I'd totally feel like a grownup.

Having said all that, my mum shared with me some weeks ago that when i was a baby family used to think i saw ghosts cause sometimez for no reason i'd look beyond them or stare through the windows. I got a picture of me doing that with my grandfather!

I don't do THAT in particular anymore though but...

I was coming close to my death in another life 25 years ago



Anywayim not the same person 5 years ago..i learned and been through so much..i have also gained a better personality and sort of a backbone.

exactly

The most important thing in my life 25 years ago at the age of 10 was Star Wars.








Well, there are always exceptions to the rule.

Yeah sure u did!!!!

I was the same person I am now. Execpt now I am older, wiser and take less shit.

Other than my 'Flock of Seagulls' haircut takin' a swan-dive, not deploying my parachute-pants as often, & the hole in my soul due to the lack of Lorenzo Lamas' presence on the big screen, I'm still the same person.

I think I'm the same person essentially, but I've evolved I like myself a lot more now and carry a lot less baggage. I'm more confident and I try to make decisions based on judgement rather than impulse like I did when I was younger. Basically I've grown into someone I love.
