Have you ever found a thing just to figure out later that it was not what you really wanted? Happiness is like that, too. It is found when things line up, maybe more things than I can even comprehend. But, I know that some people are able to do things before others, I mean in terms of development. Ages for certain benchmarks are set, and some are sooner and some are later, but for the most part, take for instance walking, at 12 months of life a human can walk. But, some do it sooner and others are motivated to do it, too. But, my daughter, I thought she couldn't walk at 16 months, still, but later, she told me that ofcourse she could everyone can at 12 months. Ok.
Lately, someone asked opinions of if a child could make a choices to be baptised at age 8. Because it had been determined that a child was able to make decisions at the age 8 they are given the opportunity to chose to be baptized.
At 18 we are supposedly mature enough to live unaided by parents. All of us? The real concern I have is for choosing an eternal companion, someone to be with FOREVER, when I am not sure we can even understand what that means in this life, I guess some do, but I have merely learned what will not work.
If we live For eternity, then a person is a fluid concept. That is how I found where happiness is hiding.
We are happy when things align, we are simply not ever able to make such a choice in this life, and that is why we need to ask. It is a matter of faith, like wether or not you believe God exists, cause it cannot be proven.
Ok, so we must trust God to tell us, even if we do not like what he says. People fall in love because of how a person looks or acts, or IS right now, but actually, if they live forever probably all of that will change. But, ah hah! So will you.
I have been struggling trying to figure out what does not change so I can like that, but years have passed and everything changed except for an idea.
Ok, too much to say, too little time.... hopefully I'll be back to say more.
