Lest you think I'm changing my mind on the decision to be more mature about my brother's marriage, let me clarify that this is completely unrelated and as a result of having gone to see Peter Pan last night.
Yeah! I went to Peter Pan. I bought the tickets for it on Tuesday and then was kind of kicking myself for it because the tickets were expensive and I had no idea who I wanted to go with. When I was thinking about who I could invite I kept thinking of the same guy--Sullivan for the purposes of this blog. You see, I like spending time with Sullivan and he gives every impression that he enjoys it too, but then if I want to see him or hang out with him again I have to be the one to call. He's not worth that much effort on my part. Anyways, I went with my friend Chris(name unchanged because I'll never have any reason to write bad things about this kid.) I had a great time.
Peter Pan is a great play. Melancholy, but great. It teaches the values of growing up and never growing up. On one hand, there's so much happiness to be found in the responsibilities of growing up. On the other hand, life would be too hard if we acted like adults all the time. My hope is that even as an old woman I will still be young at heart. Open to adventures and silliness. But not at the expense of responsibility. I think you can have both, and that's my goal.
