Yes. Tonight was the premiere of Peter Pan live. I was so excited to watch this production, because Chris played Nibs (one of the lost boys.) I met Chris earlier this year, through a friend, after one of his broadway performances in Les Mis. Although, he's only an understudy and member of the ensemble, he still gets the opportunity to go in as Marius when the lead is not able to make it. For him to be a part of the live production of Peter Pan was so exciting, and I loved being able to see his face on my TV!
The song lyrics listed above were sang by the lost boys, and it has never felt so relatable. Growing up is not easy...at all. I remember telling my dad how excited I was to not be a child anymore and do my own thing. WOW, what I would give to not be responsible for anything ever again. Finals are quickly creeping up, and the stress is just continuing to pile on. I can feel myself drowning and being dragged through fire to reach the end of this semester. Unfortunately, Neverland doesn't exist, and we can't stay a kid forever. Growing up is a part of life, and frankly, we're all going to die. SO stop desiring the past, stop focusing too much on the future, and enjoy your current stage in life.
