I recently asked my grandmother how was it that I had become an adult. I was feeling frazzled and at wits end with all of the responsibilities that I was feeling like had been thrust upon me. All sorry for myself and full of "life's not fair"
She looked at me and said:
You become an adult when there is something that needs doing; when you look around for a grown up to do it, you find none, so you do it yourself.

Your grandma seems very wise. And maybe a bit sneaky, letting you in on the secret battle plan that turns people into grown-ups. Now it's irreversible!
