When you carelessly throw away your self-restraint and [[embrace]] self-[[indulgence]], it is a [[tragedy]] for your selves, [[your angels]], and all those who [[love]] you. [[Maturity]] must be [[progressive]]. You must strive to build mature boundaries of [[conduct]] which lead to advancement in the world and [[respect]] from your [[peers]]. Self-indulgence leads to loss of self-respect and loss of the respect of your peers. [[Liberty]] to make [[spiritual progress]] is found in the mature [[actions]] of the growing sons and daughters of the Father, not in reverting to [[adolescence]] or childish [[selfishness]]. | When you carelessly throw away your self-restraint and [[embrace]] self-[[indulgence]], it is a [[tragedy]] for your selves, [[your angels]], and all those who [[love]] you.
