true story

I walked into church on sunday.
Wasnt even planning on going
friday, the retired Marine sniper who coaches our rifle team told me I needed to start going again
so I made it a point to go.
well i walk in the door and this old guy hands me a program
I kind of look up and down and all around the sanctuary
suddenly i feel this hand on my shoulder.
I turn around and its the old guy that gave me the buletin.
not an old guy that cant get around
and is real sad looking
but one about early 60s,
still has some posture,
and has that twinkle in his eye.

he says, "youre all grown up now."

I look him in the eyes, focus pretty hard on him,

"what do you mean by that?"

he grins.

"youre all grown up now, son"
and turns around to keep handing out programs.
