my goal in life... to be as childlike as possible. With ADD, that becomes a lot easier. <br>oh, and the perspective thing, i always took it that millie was a step or two in front of locke, which would explain the 'problem'.

It's a good goal, being childlike.<br><br>"What's the point in being grown-up if you can't be childish sometimes?"<br>

Personally i try to avoid being childlike as much as possible (except sometimes you just have to be <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->) the only problem is that the world simply isn't as much fun.<br><br>And i like the jam thing going on there; just to eat a foodstuff on it's own which would normally be combined with something else (probably for good reason) just illustrates locke's childish nature perfectly.

When you put all you effort into winning you forget about what the point of winning was.

Not if your pillaging, then you get all the booty/loot.

Moving out isn't so bad. There's all the responsibility and stuff that go with it, but once you get the hang of things, it feels good to be able to do things you like to do on your own and be in control of your life. Of course, some things never change. Take legos, comic strips, drawing, and bicycle riding, for example. Also, being able to try and do new stuff is lots of fun, and so is being able to hang out or invite friends over more.
