The partying?
The drinking?
The smoking?
The drugs?
The fornicating?
The fast life?
The streets?
Etc.....

When will it all be over for you? When will you hang it up and sit down somewhere? When you die? Get married? Have kids?

The allure has to get old after a while, right? I know you ain't going to be 35 in the club still talking bout "turn down for what!"

So when does it all end for you?

    The beauty of being an individual is discovering your own path. Realizing who you are by rounding yourself out and growing into maturity is more valuable when you've experienced for yourself the kind of life that encourages self enlightenment.

    People are going to love their life regardless of anything I say or do. It still doesn't hurt to ask a question on a discussion board. Shrugs

    There are a lot of adult babies though who have never matured, even though they walked "their own path".

    The road that many take is broad my friend and the road is deceptively Labeled "my own path".

    The road that leads to true living is narrow and it is labeled the way, the truth, and the life. But only few there be that find it. Amen

    all seriousness aside though and ironically enough this ^^^ is the question you should ask yourself.

    I have hung it up and sat down! Now I'm walking as a new creation in Christ who prepares good works for me to walk in! Amen!

    When are you going to call it quits and get on the winning team who has never taken a L and will never take a L?

    While the bolded may be true, you cannot force a person to live the life that you envision as the perfect life to live. We each have and discover our own "truths". You and I for example lead two very different lives and no matter how hard you try, I cannot see the world as you see it; I must live by my own experiences and those experiences have brought me thus far.

    Maybe you can understand it better if you imagine it this way: is it not much more valuable for a child to find ? for themselves and know ? directly as opposed to simply following their parents and blindly going along without direct experience?

    Becoming a well rounded mature individual is very much the same. I cannot force a person to be the best version of themselves. Their inner nature has to be a self realization.

    Grown folks are gonna do what they feel like doin. Can't force them. Change doesn't have a timetable. When they feel like they're ready to change their lives, they'll do it.

    I pondered this, but I just don't give a ? anymore. I'll be chasing 20 year old hoes until the day I die.

    Some people need the salvation a serious relationship or a kid can bring to get them out of the wild lifestyle. I don't need that ? tho, I don't want it. I've accepted who I am with zero ? given, and if I wanna drink all night then I'm gonna do it.

    I understand that I can't force anybody to change. That's a pretty concrete fact. What I can do is introduce thoughts, ideas, and make suggestions in order to persuade people to make a change.

    I know the terror of The Lord, thus I am compelled to point people to the One who can make the change in a persons life when they submit to Him.

    Honestly there are only 2 world views that dominate the minds of all humans.

    1. The most common is one based on lies and assumptions.

    2. The other being one based on truth and light.

    We get to decide if we want to remain in darkness or be transformed by the light. But sadly many people are like rats, when the truth comes they run back into the darkness because they don't want to have their evil deeds exposed for what they truly are, which are abhorrent to a just, holy, and righteous ? .

    To their own detriment they fight and struggle all the way to the grave, never coming to grips with who they truly are until they have no choice but to come to grips with who they are when they meet the King when the death angel comes to their doorstep.

    You have the choice right now to change your worldview my friend! Today is the day of salvation. Will you come to Him?

    The school of the hard knocks enrolls a lot of folks, myself included, but sometimes the knock might come too late or be too hard. Amen.
