There are times when we go outside our norm and do things we don’t normally do. For instance, we will say, “You know, I know I don’t usually date people in their 20’s but let me give it a shot”. Next thing you know, you are dealing with adolescent situations that cause you to age with every moment. You find yourself bailing them or yourself out of jail, dealing with their psychotic ex at your front door, and/or feeling the ‘wtf’ feeling in the bottom of your stomach because you KNOW you made a bad decision from the start.
Why do we attempt to fix what is not broken?
As we become older, we realize these life lessons hand us the keys to maturity. So why would we, every now and then, lock ourselves out on the other side of that door; the side of immaturity and bad decisions? I personally believe that every now and then we decide to mix it up a bit and see why we have those boundaries; those necessary and relevant boundaries that protect us from the self-inflicting troubles of life. Because lets face it, life will throw us ‘curve balls’ that we cannot control. So why not control the ‘mess’ we have power over?
We are here in the adult realm for a reason. By the grace of God, we made it. Let’s not mess it up and move backwards. If it ain’t broke…don’t hex it. :-)
