Get under! Dampening their hair but not their spirits, Linda Sknerski and Lauren Tully try to shield themselves from the rain. People become Growth, change . . . They’re really the same thing. As we start maturing physically and mentally, we find our attitudes and emotions changing as well. A Some aspects of our lives gain A importance, while others are diminished. Instead of always going along with the crowd, we start to assert our own individuality. Our opinions of ourselves become more important than the way j T others feel about us. ■■■ Friends assume a bigger part of our lives. Their quality, not their quantity, matters more to us. We begin to look for people we can depend on, people we can J relate to, instead of those we can only 1 speak to about superficial subjects. ’ We recognize our obligations to others as well as to ourselves. We begin to assume more responsibilities. We gain independence. We start to think about and prepare for the future. We learn to live with the past and the present. We perform the natural changes we need in order to grow. Theme 5
