You know you're old when...

I was recently in Bangkok, Thailand. While there I visited a tourist attraction I have never been to before. Thailand boasts the largest crocodile farm in the world. I haven't been to any others, but I can tell you this one is definitely large! We decide to see the croc wrestling show while there. That is when this happened.

Yes, that is a grown man with his head inside the mouth of a crocodile. The kids in the audience ooh'd and ahh'd. They stood up to get a closer look. They were fascinated by what they saw. I had one thought, "that man is wearing a wedding ring...he probably has children. I do not want to witness them loosing their father." I never would have had a thought like that when I was young and didn't consider the consequences of choices. In those days, I just lived in the moment and was wowed by such courage. It was a moment when I realized I'm just not as young as I used to be.

Have you had a moment recently that made you realize you're a grown up?
