Somewhere Around Peter Pan

Is it wrong to be 24 and still in school? I have found myself caught in the holiday shuffle of being home for the holidays, but only for a few days, and not really feeling anything but guilt over it. I'll be 25 in a few months, and there are people that are younger that are far more established. I'm not really established at all, to be quite honest.

Christmas is here, but am I a child or am I an adult? I feel like a child and I act like a child, but there is something deep inside me that makes stir, that wants to grow up. Something that makes me want to stuff the stockings of my own children, and soon. I think this is a conflict that needs to be resolved sometime after January 1st. Because, let's face it, we are all supposed to be kids at Christmas, whether we choose to embrace it or not.
