The Maturing Man

"Men are like a fine wine. They all start out like grapes, and it's our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something which you'd like to have dinner with."  

There come a time when as human being we must grow up. Mature and be able to stand as being of dignity, beings with a purpose in life and even pursue what is important and beneficial to us and to the community which we live in. This is the place where we no longer are compelled to act on instinct, a place where the difference between us and the rest of the members of the animal kingdoms are made distinct from each other; the time when we become aware of ‘homosapeinism”  in us.

That time comes when we no longer do things that we learnt to do; we disapprove the social learning theory. We prove to the universe that we have brains, intelligence and power to influence what is around us, our lifestyles and our universe. A time when we can be able to us the power within ourselves to mould ourselves, to make ourselves what we want to be. A time when we just choose to do what is RIGHT.

At this time, the human being is able to use his five-oh sorry let me state here six- senses. Be able to utilize skills around him and in combinations with the sense he is able to critically analyze what is around him, outline what is for and against him in life. The human being look into himself, take a journey in his life, his mind, his heart, his environment and reconnaissance into his future. In this, he picks what is important to him, what he identifies with and stick to it. He is able to identify what adds value to his life and what devalues his effort and the quality of his life. Yes, I mean the matured man is picking the strengths from the weakness. He chooses to power the strengths to take him to her heights, and changes the weakness that could be changed and accepts what would not be changed. He is able to pick out real problems from the worries of life. That mature man then sets out to solve his problems while disposing his worries. Because he is no longer afraid of himself, he is no longer in darkness of who he is!
Before long after he has critically though through his life, past, present and future; takes a journey through himself and back, the man then picks up what challenges he is facing and places on the beam balance of his life- prioritizes their attention needs and sets out to attend to them depending on their importance and urgency. All this time he is also creatively designing ways and methods of coping with the challenges as well as facing his future goals and measures.  Pour our all that he can to making sure that he has a unique, self-friendly and sustaining way of dealing with his challenges and accomplishing his goals.

This matured man, who have reached the point of no return but have to mature anyway; must not decide- like use his brains, scratch his head to make the best fit choices for his life,. Remember, he is not selfish, so he will mind about others. He is not also mean to himself. He understand that there is a predestine goal and mission that he must accomplish in the world for his good. And he therefore, putting his interest and this unique purpose in life ahead, pursues his choices. But wait a minute, this man I more than just that. He also thinks about the sustainability of his actions, purpose and environment. He does not just think of today. He wants his efforts, initiatives and dreams to outlive him.

I have no way of concluding this- that is why am leaving it here hanging for anyone who may help me take it further or close it up to comment, WELCOME
