Many may tell others they need to be an adult, but do they understand what they say ?

Do people understand the work involved in being an "Adult" - just a number of years in living will not afford that status to an individual,

and those qualities can be found in people who are of far younger years than society cares to give regard unto. and sometimes less to be found in many society tries to give regard to based on number of years living - "its an earned and gained, and acheived status" and it is not free- if one understands what "free" is.. free is responsibility, - none can be free without responsibility, and one will never be any more free than one is, responsible- and such is gained by and through, temperment - being "Adult"

By the age of puberty- one should have learned these traits- and should have embraced them and be in the full process of enacting their lives with these values to a higher degree of self responsibility.

Now let's discuss "S. E. L. F " Responsibility

S - Set

E - Eternal

L - Love

F - Free

One has to be responsible in how they do that, and to do it effectively one has to embrace being an Adult - to fully be themselves, as "S.E.L.F." - because they have arrived at the level and point , point and level of being "Tempermented" - they are then of ability and of being capable - to engage the capability, to take on "Responsibility"

R - Reasonable

E - Earnst

S - Sincere

P - Positive

O - Optimistic

N - Nuturing

S - Sensible

I - Intellectual

B - Belief

I - Inspired

L - Logical

I - Intrepid

T - Truthful

Y - Yielding

then so , is - One of being able to be S.E. L F. engaging R.E.S.P.O.N.S.I.B.I.L.I.T.Y as an A.D.U.L.T

" Shall schools not only teach academia - but also interpretations within living "

When such comes to be, the unity between home learning of values will blend and find balance in school learned values of academia

Our society has to develop programs which connect the dots.

Our systems have the design framework - as we have

"Home learned values - Church learned values -School learned values and Community learned values

Once upon a time, in the history of our society, home nurtured and taught the values which directed children toward the concept of adulst, then our churches taught the values in being adults, then our schools taught the values of how to work and learn as adults, and our communities taught us how to live together as adults.

Once upon a time, our home was our church, and it became our school

Once upon a time our church was our school

Once upon a time school was the pride of our community

and

Once upon a time, our Community - was our Home.

and

The circle supported itself.

then, it came to be, we chose

Violence - Cruelty - Abuse

We became broken homes,

We kicked church out of school

We ignored school in our community

and

Our communities no longer feel like home.

then, it came to be, we chose

Sloth - Gluttony - Wrath - Envy - Pride

and

We No longer Act like Adults

We don't feel free

and

Responsibility is not Yielding

but simply selfish

and

We insult the meaning of Adult

then, it came to be, we chose

Chaos

We wonder why life is spiraling out of control and no one understands anything and homes are houses that feel like burdens more than places of love, our communities are not wastelands, and the world is ruled by the wild of children,

then, it came to be, we chose

Greed

Unaware of how to be or become an Adult

~ what results is ~

Chaos - Greed - Violence - Cruelty - Abuse - Debauchery - Sloth - Gluttony - Wrath - Envy - Pride

" Anarchy "

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We can change the process

simply by being

Adults - Responsibly.
