“Won’t be long before the kids return.” I hear it all the time. Taylor University will re-commence classes in just over two weeks. The “kids” talked about here are the college students. And I’m one of them. Interestingly enough, I find myself saying the same thing. “The kids will be back soon.” As a 22 year old senior who took a year off before coming to school, I guess I am now one of the oldest ones here, but still. When will we grow up? Is there a point in life when we will stop being kids, or stop looking on those a bit younger than us as kids?

Probably not. Parents say to their youngest, “You’ll always be our baby.” And I guess that’s the way life goes. To someone, somewhere, I’m young by comparison. You are too. I think that’s a good thing. Take it to heart, we all need to be something of a kid sometimes.

A speck of life is lost when someone grows up too much to have a sense of humor. Will you be a kid today?
