I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up! Not me!

This morning, like the good Christian child I was raised to be (and I mostly am...YES I AM) I picked up the Word for Today to see what today's reading and devotional was about. Here's a quote from it, "we spend most of our twenties discovering all of the hundreds of things we can be. But as we mature into our thirties, we begin to discover all of the things we will never be. The challenge for us is to reach our forties and beyond and put it all together."

I promptly sent the quote to bffl via bb, because that's how we roll :-)

And to quote her, "what kind of hopeless message is this?" Lmao...But as someone like her in her early thirties, I feel her. So what? We've got a few years of disappointment as a grown up left??? There we were in our twenties thinking that by our thirties we'd have our sh*t together.

And there we were thinking we were doing a pretty good job of getting it together too. Forging ahead nicely as a grown up. Granted certain expectations not met yet...but why make the thirties sound so depressing?

Well...Time to get crackin' and find those things I'll never be.

P.S - title is quote from Peter Pan.


And before I go I thought I'd put a link to the song I am currently enamoured with...James Morrison's Better Man...enjoy (can you tell there's a romantic living somewhere in me with the lyrics of the songs I like)
