So I got some interesting answers from some of my bloggy friends about does age matter. I posted a couple of the responses, and a lot of them were just on my email, but the overwhelming concensus is no it doesn't, which is funny since almost nobody asked what it mattered or didn't matter for... It seems only to matter in the mind of the beholder, or rather things such as this matter less to others than one might think. This is a question I have been asking for a pretty long time in all areas in my life since at a fairly young age I had a very responsible job, (meaning I was responsible for lots of the client's money) yet since I looked so young they still assumed I was the intern or secretary and sent me for coffee. At first it pissed me off and I'd get all resentful, but then after a while I started to just offer everyone coffee before they could ask me and it became a moot point. And it was more fun and it's just good to be nice to people.
God always seems to provide me with experiences that can teach me exactly what I need to learn, if I can be open to it and willing to take the lesson. But it's always good. Like Guruji says, "do your practice and all is coming." it is that simple. I used to try and figure stuff out. But now I like to just practice and go along for the ride. Sometimes the last thing I want to do is practice, but I have never practiced and regretted it. Sometimes it's frustrating to hear that the answer is to just keep practicing or keep praying because I want something specific or, I don't know what I want, actually. But that's just it. It's a faith thing.
