You are who you are

In life people have opinions of themselves, often based on things that are not entirely true. Someone in business school might say they are a business man.

Point being, you are who you are.

Young people get away with doing stupid things: drinking, sexing around, partying, drugs because people say wow look at how free it is to be young, i wish i could be young again.

Then men in their midlife crisis get away with doing stupid things, drinking sexing around, partying, drugs because people say wow look at how free they must be, its like they are young again.

But in reality, they are not young again - they are still messed up! People don't drink sex or party because they are young,
they drink because their life is miserable and they are trying to escape
they have sex because they are rejected, whether it be by their fathers, abuse, or girlfriends/boyfriends
they have drugs because their life is miserable and they try to escape.

When young people turn thirty it is expected that they stop, but they don't they hide it a little bit, they stop getting drunk and get a bit wined up. they don't boast about drugs. they hide extra maritial affairs.

Then when they turn 45 they come out - and everyone sees again who they ALWAYS WERE.

You see ... you are who you are, and if you want to improve you can. The Holy Ghost can set you free, and help you, you can get some discipline and some encouragement and you can change.
BUT if you dont change now you will never change. You have to change yourself with Gods help and through the Grace of God. If you don't change you wont grow up, you will grow grey.

Then people will say, look at that dirty old man.

So grow decide to change, put the effort in! Discipline yourself, Seek God's face, get on your face and repent.

Do what you must to change, otherwise you wont.. . EVER
