Rediscover the child within
Do you remember your childhood?
Playing all day long, when everything
astonishes us, always wanting to learn
something new, enjoying every moment,
being curious and open minded to new things,
not knowing the word ‘failure’ because we
believed that everything is possible.
Do you remember that one minute we were
crying, and just in seconds we were smiling again,
because we could forgive in the blink of an eye.
Do you remember waking up every day with big
smile on our face, jumping out of the bed rushing
to wake up the whole family: “ Come on wake up!
We have lots of things to do today!” and when it
comes to get into bed in the evenings we just simply
don’t want to do it, because we still want to play and
enjoy the moment.
Do you remember going to strangers asking them
“What’s your name? Do you want to be my friend?”
or just going to a homeless on the street, asking her
or him “Hello, why do you lie on the dirty street
asking for money?”
Do you remember loving and hugging people just to
appreciate their existence, saying: “Daddy, I love you”
or “Mommy you are the greatest mom in the World!”.
We just simply didn’t know how to refrain from our
feelings.
Do you remember running and jumping all around the
whole day? Being active was part of our nature. We
couldn't sit in place for 5 minutes and now we spend
8 hours or more in front of the computer.
Do you remember asking questions all the time?
Because we wanted to know everything, we were
open to the world and we did want to understand
everything. We didn't like secrets and we weren't
satisfied if the answer didn't make sense to us. We
were just asking and asking until the answers
made sense to us.
Rachel Carson said: „A child's world is fresh and
new and beautiful, full of wonder and excitement.
It is our misfortune that for most of us that
clear-eyed vision, that true instinct for what is
beautiful and awe-inspiring, is dimmed and even
lost before we reach adulthood.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe said: „ If children
grew up according to early indications, we should
have nothing but geniuses.”
Pablo Picasso said: „Every child is an artist. The
problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.”
They were so right. We were all born as children
and we all pass away as pure hearted children. It is
up to YOU how you live your life between the two.
If you have difficulties rediscovering the child within,
spend more time with children. Ask them questions,
like what would you do in my position? What do you
think of this and that?
Watch the movie 'Life is beautiful' or 'Pay it forward'.
Be inspired by them! They are the greatest teachers,
and purest human beings on Earth.
Remember we were all children once, and it is
only up to YOU, if you want to change your life by
rediscovering the child within!
