Maturity

Lately Manhood has been on my mind. Peter Pan wanted to be a boy forever, and whenever I have thought of manhood, it has been as a status one trades his creativity to gain. However here are some things I would like to be, when I become a Man:

• Does things he knows are right
• Listens to others, fully engages with and interested in those who speak to him, not wandering to problems in own life 
• Doesn't get angry
• Keeps his word
• Not compromise identity and ideals to make things easier in individual situations 
• Learns how to use his creativity to benefit others, rather than attempts to dominate or remain in control or seek attention

This list is growing
