Larvae Laws

I believe for most people their late teens and up till they reach the age of 30, they are stuck in an intermediate stage of life. A sort of limbo, just on the fringe of how their lives are going to be for all of eternity. Maybe it's less than that, and I'm putting too much emphasis on this larvae phase.

It seems during this season that if love-of a romantic origination- is not an elusive creation to us , it's a confusing creation while we cup it in our grasp. Yet we do not run from it, or disgust it. Mostly we covet it, we hope for it. We mourn with grief-laden hearts its absence or its retreat...or walk about with unconstrained glee when it is found again-perhaps unexpectedly.

Family relationships change too because not only do you expect to be treated as an adult from those who have known you as a child, you now are beginning to deserve such treatment. And you begin to look at your parents and siblings alike, as more than simply family. They are fellow workers with you in the faith and thus, our treatment of them takes on a dual profundity...a dual obligation. So as to preserve peace on both family and congregation levels.

And lastly, we begin to see the relevence of proper conduct, tactfulness, self-control and a sense of humor while interacting with the general populous. They say that a baby explores with his mouth...well so do most intermediate-adults...just in a way slightly different.

But you are only as old as you feel...only as old as you act. Therefore I intend on being 18 for the next 10 years, and then I'll be 25 for the following 10 years, and after that really who am I kidding?
