Maturity
Ah, being a grownup. To some it seems a death knell, when actually it is the key to all freedom. Maturity gives us the ability to make sound decisions on behalf of ourselves and those in our care, grant room to others without losing ourselves and thereby enjoy harmonious relationships, maintain perspective on the events of life both momentous and everyday, and generally contribute something of value to the world around us. Maturity makes life easier. Following are excellent examples of people eschewing it, embracing it, and attempting to mend their lives once they find it.

Back from a seriously scary health relapse in mid-October and returning to action. Kudos to my patient friends and colleagues, you're the best. New programs and more unrolling this year, here's to 2012!
