A smile or was that just a face peaking out wondering about growing up when you are always 5 years plus of a man and wondering why they always want to read books

Growing up only becomes a problem when you decide to stop

We teach to grow up and parents teach to survive

But on the whole we are do a good job

We unleash upon this world Christians who decide to take on the world with nothing in reality

We trust and put what we trust in the hands of those we dont

We consider that all Politicians are corrupt, so go for those who pay more

I leave you with the Politician's thought

"This is my payslip

Some slip indeed

It comes from being around

On your knees"

I really liked this Dave:
"Growing up only becomes a problem when you decide to stop"
"We trust and put what we trust in the hands of those we dont"
Great lines there.

The soul would have no rainbows, had the eyes no tears.

My spirit will rise

There will be no drowning
of my soul or me~

Growing up only becomes a problem when you decide to stop

....or when you're frozen in place, prematurely senile because you have failed to keep growing, without even realizing it.

I see that all too often, in myself and in others, some of them poets and some just folks. The best human being I know is both, and he has drifted almost irreversably into that failing, so I have to accept him as he is, Urantia and all. Political attitudes set in stone, religious attitudes implacable...such a shame.

Don't let it get you.
