Which is admirable, but you won't totally "get it" until you're a little older. Unless you're *really* exceptional. I was a fair bit like you seem to be, when I was 20 or 21, and I acknowledge now that I didn't have as much of a handle on it as I do now.
Perhaps you are right Julia. And if you are, then I guess I won't understand until I "grow up". <lol>
Your merits, as I see them from your posts so far, are laudable. Your shortcomings as they come through in your posts will probably be reduced noticeably in 5 years.
Thank you. I do try.

Extrapolate high school-to-now by a doubling, at least, and that's what you can look forward to when you reach the ripe age of 30 or so. At least, this was *my* experience. :)

Only time will tell. In closing though, let me just say that I have always had a knack of seeing situations from many angles. The ability to see the world through a childs, adults, seniors or a dead mans eyes has been a gift of mine for quite some time. Even the eyes of an animal<lol>. Perhaps you may one day read that story. Of course I may just be delusional, but I tend to believe in myself at least a little.
