The wisdom of a child is very simple and easy to follow. Children have no fear in their hearts, their minds are Clear. They go through the day with curiosity, doing difficult things like building sand castles, watching the squirrels chasing each other in the trees, laughing and singing and walking with their friends.
Children do not care if their friends are different then them, weather it be color, religion, dress, height, weight or how they talk, because they are not born with these prejudices.
All they know is that they like being around their friends and when they look into their friends eyes, they see themselves.
A child will share what they have with out looking for something in return. When they get hurt playing, they do not seek revenge or build hatred. All they need is a kiss & hug from Mom or Dad, then off they go again. And if one of their friends gets hurt, they cry right along with them.
Children do not get up in the morning wondering what terrible things may happen. They open their eyes with a naïve heart, searching for the wondrous things they can do today.
All the bad things that invades a child's spirit are the things we put there. Children do not have a hard heart. All they give is love while all they ask for is love. Their wisdom is simple ------"LOVE" What a great world we would have if all had the wisdom of child.
