Growing Pains and Lasting Impressions ESP/ENG

At 15, you begin to form who you will be in the future. This quinceañera has a quite mature appearance for her age, but she is still a 15-year-old girl. Part of what is in her personality today will be part of her personality later on, but it will obviously not be the same.

A los 15 años uno empieza a formar cómo será en el futuro. Esta quinceañera tiene una apariencia bastante madura para su edad, pero no deja de ser una niña de 15 años. Parte de lo que está en su personalidad hoy será parte de su personalidad adelante, pero evidentemente no será igual.

I recently went through a situation where I reacted in a way that made me remember when I was 15, and I was left thinking about that and how for some things it seems we are completely different from how we were before, and for others, we are almost exactly the same people.

Hace poco pasé por una situación donde reaccioné de una forma que me hizo recordar cuando tenía 15 años y me quedé pensando acerca de eso y cómo para algunas cosas parece que somos completamente diferentes a como éramos antes y para otras somos casi exactamente las mismas personas.

Maturing is something very subjective. Assuming someone's maturity by exclusively comparing them to you is a mistake. Each person has their own evolution, and each person arrives sooner or later where they should arrive, as they should, so they don't have to rush.

Madurar es algo muy subjetivo. Asumir la madurez de alguien por exclusiva comparación contigo es un error. Cada persona tiene su propia evolución y cada persona llega tarde o temprano donde debe llegar, como debe, así que no se tienen por qué apurar.
