This world is not for children so he was right to leave. But growing up is such a wonderful thing. To become alive...to endure the pain of love...to know that we will die.
Damn...I love it.
I speak only for myself but the humility of maturity is a wonderful thing. Connects all adults...connects us with each other and with God.
And to think, I was a controlling Mother and denied my own sons the ecstasy you were describing...I shouldn't have had rules...oh dear.
