Becoming an Adult
Starr has declared that this is the summer that she will become an adult. I didn’t say anything, but listened to her musings.
She figures that she needs to become an adult before graduating from college. Before embarking on her career path and then possibly going to graduate school. Not to mention having a family.
How do you become an adult? According to Starr, you look at each decision that you make and consider “what would be the adult choice here?” before making a decision. From clothing purchases–will this outfit be appropriate for work?, to decorations–is this an item that I might want in my future home?, financial decisions and personal choices.
She figures that after a few months, the adult thing will have kicked in and she will be well on her way to an awesome future.
I know that we were just chatting and that she was just looking forward to graduating and getting her life on track, but it made me smile. I don’t remember ever having those thoughts.
Just as soon as I said that I didn’t have an mp3 for The Tallest Man on Earth, I run across one! So I thought I would share it today:
mp3: “Burden of Tomorrow” – The Tallest Man on Earth
Wild Hunt
The Tallest Man on Earth-MySpace
I wish it were so easy as to just decide we’re adults and be adults. I would have done so a lot earlier than I did!
Tell her to enjoy her youth…is being an adult really all that it is cracked up to be?

I think it’s time for me to start having those thoughts. Starr’s WAY ahead of me!
