A sense of travel. In effect, you might say you're on a trip. Reaching plateaus along the way where you rest and then continue on.Don't expect children to understand you, the job you do, or the sacrifices youmake. They thought you were senile about the time they reached the age of reason. Their conviction strengthens as they grow older and begin taking sociology and psychology courses in college. They may even use you as a term project in the study of abnormal behavi
