You’re never too old to grow up.
~ Shirley Conran ~
Some of us have spent many years trying not to grow up. As children, we watched the adults around us. They may not have seemed happy. “Is life all hard work for grown-ups?” we wondered.
No, it’s not all hard work. There are lots of good things about growing up. We can take charge of our life. We can learn to take care of ourselves. We can learn to share our feelings with good friends. We can make our world safe enough for us to express feelings again. We can learn how to love others. We do have choices.
Prayer for the Day
Higher Power, help me grow up into a happy, grateful adult.
Action for the Day
There are happy grown-ups. I’ll find one to be my sponsor.
