My son came to me last night, right before the beginning of the new year and said, "dad, the years are going by so fast, and I'm afraid of becoming an adult. It just seems so hard." So I told him, "son, being an adult is no harder than being a kid having to listen to adults who were once kids themselves. In fact, being an adult is cool. What makes being an adult not cool are the choices you make as an adult, and that's why I'm here to guide you, and help you make the right ones."
