The hardest part of growing up

Is realizing you were meant to be better than who you are

The hardest part of being young

Is realizing you'll never live up to who you want to be

George Eliot said:  'It is never too late to be what you might have been'.

In many ways that's rubbish of course, because at sixty-three I don't think I'm going to be that trapeze artist any time soon, but in other ways I agree.  It's never too late to try to be better than we have been.
