The joyful essence of maturity
There's a profound quote by OSHO that goes, "When you are really mature, you will again become childlike."
It's a statement that may seem paradoxical at first glance. After all, isn't maturity about growing up, about shedding our childlike ways? Isn't it about becoming more serious and responsible? That’s what I used to think. I remember going down the hall in Grade 4, practicing being all calm and poised in front of teachers so I would be seen as being mature. That’s what I thought people expected of me.
According to OSHO, maturing is quite the opposite. He suggests that true maturity is about rediscovering the child within us — not quieting or stifling her in. True maturity is about embracing our innate curiosity, our sense of wonder, and our capacity for unbridled joy.
Life as Dance, Not Business
OSHO continues, "Then your life will again become fun. You will enjoy it, every bit of it; you will not be serious. A deep laughter will spread all over your life. It will be more like a dance and less like business." These words challenge our conventional understanding of adulthood. We've been conditioned to believe that adult life is serious business - filled with responsibilities, commitments, and problems. We're told to plan, to strategize, to always stay ahead of the game. In my twenties and through my corporate career, it was all about getting serious and becoming an adult; which in my mind meant to settle down, get a house, get a car, get the next raise, get… so many goals! I thought the essence of being mature was to have all theses things and experiences that adults should have. Enjoying life was not that high on the list; that was supposed to come later in life. Instead, I got a huge burnout. Then an other.
That’s why I resonate so much with OSHO’s invitation us to view life differently. To him, life is not a business to be managed, but a dance to be enjoyed.
Reclaiming the Joy of Being
OSHO's philosophy is a call to reclaim the joy of being. It's about realizing that maturity doesn't mean letting go of our childlike nature, but rather, it means integrating it into our adult lives. It's about learning to dance with life, to laugh deeply, and to enjoy each moment fully. This is not to say that we should shirk our responsibilities or ignore our problems. Rather, it's about approaching life with a playful spirit and a joyful heart. It's about realizing that the essence of life is not in the doing, but in the being.
