#135 - ‘Inner child/Outer Adult’ (Childlike or Childish?)

Childlike or Childish? Are we fully in our adult selves or merely fucked up kids in grown up bodies? I think most reasonable human beings, strive to be responsible adults & keep our inner little ones in check with kindness, love, compassion & a firm, steady hand.
