Adulthood's Commitments
“A healthy adult is one who can love and work.” – Sigmund Freud.
How was your
day so far?
Two Aspects
What separates adulthood from
other stages in life?
Look at it this way, what does the
average adult do almost
everyday?
If your thinking Arby’s your
wrong, if you thought work and
going home to their families you
are correctamundo. Sorry no gold
star if you got it right.
Work and love are the main
aspects that make adulthood so
different.
Black Falcon 
Love <3
Love is very important to mankind. We see it
everywhere. Anywhere from movies to the streets
of Zimbabwe (exclude Jersey Shore). It starts with
flirting, then falling in love, and lastly marriage or
commitment to one person (unless there’s baby
mama drama). Love is usually more enjoyable and
likely to last between two adults when they have
more similar interests and values, a sharing of
emotional and material support, and intimate selfdisclosure. Now in today’s world the adult looks
past those fairy tale endings and looks for
someone who has a good job, is a good caregiver,
intimate friend, and warm and responsive lover.
What comes after this? Marriage of course. Being
married doesn’t mean everything’s going to be
okay. Problems are bound to come up, but it’s
how a couple deals with them that determines
how strong of a couple they are.
Love <3 (Continued)
Usually a married couple will have a child. A child will strengthen the love
between parents and bring them closer together, but when the money
starts pouring out of pockets, time is taken away, and emotional energy is
drained from the parents, being married might not be such a happy thing.
This doesn’t mean it’s the end of the line, it means to work together to
figure out a plan to satisfy both people. Lastly the child leaves the parents.
Depending on the parents this could be a hard separation to overcome.
After the child leaves their “nest” parents will once again enjoy life with
one another alone.

Work -_Work is the other aspect to adulthood. A job is something you will most
likely keep for awhile, so it’s important to acquire a job that will satisfy all
your needs. To adults, the job you have is part of who you are. It can tell a
lot about the kind of person you are. For example, if you work at a
nightclub doing bad things people might not respect you as much as
someone who has money like the guy who came up with Snuggies. The job
you pick should a sense of competence and accomplishment.
