An adult person is a set of beliefs and behaviors, not our own. An adult is self-perceived as a woman or man that behaves in specific ways. She or he often speaks in a voice of authority, seriousness, and a language never quite their own. Take the adult out of me, and what is left? Me. The original me, in my case, was when I was
12-years old. I remember me.
I freely danced, did hand springs,
somersaults, rode my bike down hills that the adult would never do. The
12 year old, yet to be adult me, laughed a lot. Not at other people, but with them. He found it difficult to take seriously much of what the adult me.......does. Even spiders weren't that scary.
