Note To Parents Of My Generation 2

So you think a 25 year old is someone old and mature? Why would you even think that in the first place?
Within my short time on earth, I've met a lot of individuals and it is amazing to know that some ladies and gents who were even up to 30 years, don't just have some necessary information. I begin to fear for their wives, husbands or children. Especially their children. 

A typical example was a man I came across and had somany things he wanted to achieve, I then asked this question "what do you really want to do now, which comes first?" and his answer was "I don't know, I'm still praying about it." I asked a young lady who contacted me for Interior Design classes, what do you love to do, why Interior Decor/Design? Guess what, her answer was also "I don't know,I just love beautiful houses" and she's 26. It wasn't even about the age but the way she carried herself like a queen without knowing what she wanted. She couldn't even stand the pressure of the classes. 

I was really perplexed and heartbroken by their answers but it got me thinking and asking more questions because this girl wants to be married as soon as possible, she also thinks she's aging then pressure from parents since she's done with school, adding to society based on female friends and family members getting married. The guy on the otherhand says he's engaged to be married and arrangements for the marriage will soon begin. 

If these two persons in my example could not simply answer the question what that one thing they really loved doing was, how can they identify a little child's gift and start training them to be grounded in it from infancy?

The children we would be birthing will need us to understand their gifting from infancy and start giving them necessary training at that stage. They will be thankful and love us for doing that when they grow but we would also be somewhat fulfilled when that our simple act made them become a blessing to us from an early age.

Without the necessary information of discovering yourself, how can you discover another?

BE INFORMED, YOU CERTAINLY WILL BECOME A PARENT TOMORROW.

I rest my case.
