From Beginning to End

We enter the world not knowing who we are or where we are going.  We learn to manipulate our surroundings and that we have to interact with those surroundings.  Our brain develops connections and we love to learn and don't forget much of anything when we are young children.  We want the world around us to be fair but still look to our parents to support and guide us by giving us rules and feedback.  We later begin to see our parents as holding us back and feel the need to push the limits and test the rules.  Now instead of looking to our parents for answers we are looking to our friends and close social groups.  We often fall victim to peer pressure and end up realizing that what our parents were telling us all along was right.  Our bodies change and never stop changing.  We enter young adulthood and are practicing different relationships and further developing our sense of self.  Further into adulthood we often begin to start the process over with our own children however we ourselves have not yet figured everything out.  Later adult hood we tend to regress back to some child like mannerisms and technology seems to be strange to us.  We tend to resist change and stick to what is familiar to us.  We now look to our children to take care of us instead of us taking care of them.
One thing is for sure it is not about making a good life but living the one that you have.  We all have the same beginning and end but the journey is what makes us unique.
