The best parts of adulthood are the parts of childhood that you can sensibly incorporate. -- original quote of C. Marie Byars

The idea in this quote balances Jesus' idea that we must receive the Kingdom of God as little children [with faith and trust] and St. Paul's idea that when we become adults, we must put away "childish" things. This comes at the nexus of separating "child-like" from "childish." It's important to retain the former but work on shedding the latter. A post from my other blog, a poem on "Joy", may be helpful in this regard.
The earliest existing post from this blog discusses generating and preserving original quotes. It gives some insight into the early days of Blogger and Blogspot, and how we connected.

But I get annoyed when I see parents try to live through their kids.
