The world around us is full of discretion. Judgement by race, by sexuality, by the way that you think.
How much better the world would be if we all stayed open and saw the world the same way we did when we were only kids.
Because children take anything, however big however small however different,
And see it all as equal and special, in its own way.
A child also takes anything sad and decides to look around to see beauty in all things.
A dog chasing its tail, a leaf fluttering in the breeze, even a funny sounding goose waddling around asking for bread.
They take the mistakes they make, and try not to make that mistake again. They fix what they've broken, they hug whoever they've hurt, and they always say sorry, even if it wasn't entirely they're fault.
We could learn a lot from children. With the way they think and the way they act even the way they clean up their messes.
The world would be a better place. If we could only stop ourselves from growing up.
The first and most famous poems from my old account. I thought I'd share again. Enjoy
