The hardest test of maturity

From the Anonymous file comes this quote:  “The hardest test of maturity is knowing the difference between resisting temptation and missing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”  I can’t decide if that’s supposed to be humorous.  Certainly in my case, most things that look like once-in-a-lifetime opportunities really are temptations that are best resisted.  Or perhaps I haven’t yet mastered that one.
