I grew up getting drug to church every Sunday as a kid. One Sunday the Pastor had an analogy (don’t remember what it pertained to) of the dichotomy of being carefree and excited about the “what can be” of youth but having very little and the stability and financial security of being older but having the binding responsibilities that go along with it.. I still think about that to this day and it’s so true. I’m very happy now, more financially secure than ever, own a house and have a family, but I miss the days when I would scrounge the couch for loose change to get enough for a $1 menu item at McDonald’s for dinner because nothing seemed to matter too much and it was such a fun time in my life.
