There is a significant struggle at birth as one enters this world.

But as a small child there’s a short time of pleasant innocence as the world around us is discovered.

Then as a teenager there’s metamorphic change and consternation as innocence fades and one is forced to deal with the harshness of the world.

As an adult there’s limited time.  Job children spouse.

As a retired person there’s finally time and money and hopefully health.

Shortly after that, there is a struggle to stay healthy.

Then there is a battle to stay alive.

Then there’s the realization of the inevitable and capitulation as one realizes that they cannot win.

And then there is death.

If you are “known” by the Father, a second life then begins.  One with no limits.
