Causing trouble in an empty house
Bits and pieces by LoisMarch 26, 2013
Causing trouble in an empty house is something I associate with young people, it’s a sign of immaturity to my mind, and so it surprises me when I find adults who seem to relish doing this. I shouldn’t be surprised really, some people never grow up – and I don’t mean that in a complimentary way. Not growing up if you retain a child-like wonder at the world, an innocent delight in simple things, a trust and belief in the goodness of others is a gift. Not growing up when you behave like an attention seeking child who wants to manipulate others and yet remain a pious bystander is annoying at the best, troubling at the worst.
