You Were an Achieving Kid |
 When you were a kid, people often remarked on how mature you seemed. You acted quite adult. You excelled at school, and you actually enjoyed it to a large extent. No one had to ask you to do your homework. As a kid, you were probably a bit picky. You liked structure, schedules, and organization. You had trouble being friends with regular kids. You probably were only friends with other serious children. |
"Truly, it is the indescribable sweetness of contemplation which you give to those who love you. In this you have shown the tenderness of your charity, that when I had no being you made me; and when I strayed away from you, you brought me back again to serve you and commanded me to love you." The Imitation of Christ

Twitch of the mantilla to Karen.
..when I was at Junior School (back in the last Century... quite a way back in the last Century), if a pompous older child called us 'kids', as in 'You kids, go somewhere else!', we would unanswerably chant:
ReplyDelete'I'm a kid, you're a Goat;
You stink, and I don't!'
