dont you think no matter how much we've grown up will still have a heart of a child. i would say growing up would be more like putting a new face to the world and hide the rest. and have to act on a different mood.

We all have a child, adult and teacher within each of us. Always.

Love changes as you grow older and experience more things. In childhood, your love is to parents, family and friends, and has an innocence to it that differs from the love you feel for others as you grow older. In adolescence into young adulthood, the love you develop for others is more fiery, as you are more prone to succumb to passionate love. This is also the time of life when you make some of your biggest mistakes, but learn the biggest lessons if you survive them intact, because you tend to be heart-strong and head-foolish. Tempered by time, the love you feel later on can be just as intense, but more romantic. There is still room for childlike trust and a playful kind of love, if you let it happen, but it is also helped along by the wisdom you've gained over the years. And as those years go by, when with a new love, it is more through shared experiences that you come together than through a physical connection, or with a love you've been with for a long time, through a mutual understanding and intimacy that requires neither words nor physical actions to be shared.
Growing up does not mean that love gets any less important or that you have to hide or suppress how you feel, but the way the love is expressed and experienced does indeed change over time, because you change over time. You might not make out on the kitchen counter as often as you did when you were younger, or splash each other in a public fountain just because you can, but you have more life experiences to share and become emotionally, spiritually and intellectually closer than you had time to do as a teenager. In the blush of young, new love, it may not seem as though your feelings can grow any deeper, but they do, given time and an openness to the fullness that life can bring.

I think the child lives within us but we just don't listen to it as we used to. That's why I love being around children they are so pure. The way they see things without a prejudiced point of view. They see things for what they are. Sometimes I find myself wishing I could be more like a child carefree. I think love can evolve into something more something deeper. For example you care for a friend and love them but then that love evolves into something else. I think as you love someone over the years the bond between you deepens and the love grows stronger.

a child's love is purer than an adults. growing up has a way of clouding that purity with conditions. maturing is just us forgetting how simple life is.

love never grows up but it gets intensified.
