Do you remember when you were a little girl or boy? How the biggest problem you had was having to go to school, or do a few chores around the house. I know that some had to work in the fields on the farm, and feed farm animals. But still, that wasn't like having to work 8 to 10 hours a day, then coming home to find more work to be done. Bills the pay, doctors appointments to keep, shopping to be done, etc. etc.
When we were small children, our minds were on ourselves, and what kind of fun we could have next. But now as an adult, we have others to think about. Now it seems that our own welfare is pushed to the back, while others, and their welfare come ahead of our own. Now it seems like our fun is watching our children or grandchildren play. Our joy and happiness comes from the well-being of the loved ones in our families.
I guess that's why, when people run across a selfish and self-absorbed person. The usual remark is ''grow up''.
With maturity, comes responsibility. It's taking that responsibility on, that makes heroes, great parents, and great grandparents. Our understanding that each person is a creation of God, and special. No one person is greater or lesser than any other. It doesn't matter how fat, how thin, how tall, how short a person made be. We are all in it together. But sometimes we do wish it could be as it was when we were all children, don't me?
Until next time God bless and God save.
