Joining a gym is like moving into a new apartment. You do a little tour, decide if it’s what you’re looking for, and then commit to being there for a lot of time. You hope the showers are nice. You hope the facilities are up to code, and you hope that there aren’t too many noisy neighbors (AKA meatheads who drop their barbells with reckless abandon). 

Then you hope that you’ve made a good investment. Gyms aren’t cheap, after all. They’re a pretty big comittment. This is part of the reason that gets you up and out of bed, though. To make good on your investment. You would hate for all that hard-earned cash to go to waste. So you wake up at 5, put on your sneakers, and make it happen, whether you like it or not.

First Sorrow and Joy

O most pure Spouse of Mary,
glorious St. Joseph,
as the affliction and anguish of thy heart
was exceedingly great in thy perplexity,
whether thou shouldst abandon thy most unspotted Spouse,
so was the joy unspeakable when,
by an Angel,
the sublime Mystery of the Incarnation was revealed to thee.
By this sorrow and joy,
we beseech thee that now,
and in our last agony,
thou mayest comfort our souls by the joy of a good life
and a holy death, …

There are so many holiday traditions that we accept to make other members of our family happy. It’s a form of giving to see The Nutcracker with your mom every year, even though you really don’t care about the Sugar Plum Fairy and her journey. A dad might not particularly enjoy risking his hide to put colorful lights on the roof every year, but he does it to make his kids smile. Like them or not, there’s a good chance that annual Christmas traditions make someone in your family happy, and that’s reason enough to continue doing them. 

What if you find yourself stuck doing a family tradition that you, your partner, and your siblings all really dislike? Would it be cruel to abandon the tradition in favor of a more convenient, cozy tradition that has the same bare bones as the old one? That’s what this eldest child took to Reddit to ask, and the responses are conflicted as they come.

There’s a time in your life when you’ve got to grow up. I’m not saying that you must get married, have kids, and abandon everything you loved when you were younger. You literally don’t have to do anything of the sort, but the reality is that most people do end up getting married or having kids at some point. As a wise woman once said, “If you have a baby, you don’t get to be the baby.” If you choose to get married, you can’t spend 8 hours a day playing video games with your boys like you did when you were 13. If your wife is pregnant, you can’t just decide three-quarters of the way through the gestation process that you aren’t feeling it anymore. A pregnant woman recently took to Reddit to share her experience with her man-child husband and the actions that led to her leaving him for good.
