Full Grown

There is not an equal understanding between the concepts of freedom and responsibility these days. When we were growing up we wanted freedom, but we knew in crystal clear terms that being free meant the ability to handle our own affairs. Being free meant dealing with rent, car payment, utility bills, buying food and carrying the weight of what ever it took to live. In some strange twist of all that makes the slightest bit of common sense now folk want freedom and expect others be responsible for them at the same time. People want to free without a job. People want to do what they want without facing any consequences. Mature freedom is not an escape from, but a charge toward responsible behavior. Good decision making, personal diligence, handling business and being the best person possible is the way to maximize freedom. Stepping up to full, grown adult life means reaching the potential that God has laid before us. Stop looking for others to pay the price for your freedom. Have a great day bearing the consequences of each choice you make!
