Epithet

For some reason, I've known for a long time how I'd like my life to be summed up: "He helped a child". To me, that is the purpose of life: to help the next generation along, to grow and become their own people, who then also go out and help others grow.

Maybe that explains why (a) I've never felt "grown up" completely, and (b) why I like working with youth, especially as a Sunday School teacher and camp counselor/program director.
