how is life different?

well, life always offers something different from the other significant moments in our lives. moving out from the parents' house was like a dream suddenly realized. ever since a child, i dreamed of being independent and living a life of my own. the authority of parents is at times very annoying and over-arching. the taste of independence is exhilirating and liberating.

It really depends on how dependent you are. I lived only with my mom so i dont have a dad to miss. Im more independent that way. I only had one parent most of my life, so it was not so hard moving out. Also depends how far you go. I didnt go so far so its nice to be able to visit when i desire. Just look at the bright side, more freedom less pressure. I was hard on my mom, im glad to leave her more relaxed now. You have to realize parents to get tired at one point. They just want their kids to move on and be happy. :-)
