How do I become an adult?

Good story from Cary Tennis on growing up, something I’ve been thinking a lot more about lately, with the wedding approaching and all.

I like this excerpt from the article:
‘You know what time it is. The tiger knows what time it is, too. It is time for you to become an adult. But you do not know how to do it. Of course you don’t know how to do it! You are not really supposed to know how to do it. The way you learn how to do it is by wandering. But you also need to find a guide.’

Is Leng my guide? Or is it someone else? Do we guide each other? I guess I’ll have to figure things out as they come along.
