Never Grow Up

According to Huxley Soma is not only a drug that makes people feel good but it also reverses aging. In the real world however it almost seems impossible to not grow up. Well, almost impossible. Just yesterday a new animated movie came out on Netflix called " The Little Prince". It is based on the children's book written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry and has a rating of 92% on Rotten Tomatoes, but that's not why I'm posting. During the movie a little girl says that she doesn't want to grow up because she didn't want to become someone different from who she was now.  Jeff Bridges' character which is an old aviator who has flown around the world responded with a line that caught my attention, " It's not that people grow up, it's more that people forget." To me this line says that people get so caught up with life's responsibilities like trying to find a good job or graduating from school that they end up forgetting what made them who they were. But then I began to wonder how people avoid growing up in the first place. Maybe some of you have the answer. How do you never forget who you were while dealing with all the challenges life throws at you? How is it possible to never grow up?
