Youngsters long to grow up so people won't always be telling them what to do. Arriving at adulthood comes with the surprise of the myriad responsibilities it entails. It can a rude shock to realize all for which an adult is responsible. Being an adult is not all it's cracked up to be.
Yet, there are many times adults have the freedom to vote with their bodies. Don't like the movie, get up and leave. Not happy with a restaurant, don't go back. Daily choices face us about which we can make decisions. That was my experience today. Planning to hunt,, when confronted by the wind when I left the truck, I voted with body and re-entered the truck. "I don't have to walk in this wind" I thought.
While cogitating on the freedom of adults to vote with their bodies my niece called. Chatting on this subject she reminded me that my retired perspective is quite different from hers as a working woman. She has a major report due tomorrow.
Clearly I'm blessed; with the freedom of good health, adequate finances, positive relationships and so much more. Yes, I'm grateful!
Takk for alt,
