[QUOTE="Achucker, post: 221119, member: 5185"] I'm in the same age group. What I realized is we all out of high school thought life was one long running summer vacation. Some didn't work and just partied. Some (like myself) worked to party on the weekends. Then we all grew up a little and decided to get married. We forgot or were never told that when you do this you MUST die to your selfish ways. Some may have married a spouse that do the things they love and some didn't. The ones that did life didn't change much. Then you add kids. And the more you have the more complex. You are adding more personalities and interests. Which means now none of it is about YOU. Everything you do should be for your family and their eternity. If the Bible tells us anything it's this: nothing in this world matters only our relationships. Is that job or pursuit of money more important than your time validating your son or daughter. Is making sure your house or toys/hobbies the best of everything more important than showing your wife how much she means to you and you love her. If any of this is DON'T GET MARRIED OR HAVE KIDS!!
