THE BABY IN ME

                    I've always loved babies. The way they cry, smile, light up their eyes when something steals their attention, how they tighten their grip on anything they hold, their little lips when they part in a smile, the innocence in their giggle, a reflection of their state of mind .... Blank, unassuming, unashamed, bare. Ga ga ga goo gooo heheheheh! these are the cute sounds of children so sweet yet so annoying!  Every good comes with the bad so it is when you find that inner child in you.


                                                                                                                


                  Some of us take life too seriously forgetting that the inner child is what makes us view the world innocently! It gives that ability to trust innocently, act on instinct and take on life without the fear of failing. Have you ever noticed what happens when a baby falls hard on it's butt? A smile is the answer it gives to that little set back of falling down. At other times it may cry a little, but give it just a minute and see how it's face glows and its enthusiasm to do that which it fell doing returns.
                                                 
                 The times are harder for an adult, more expenses, more responsibilities, less fun, less living. HOW SAD. Adults mere exist... not live. Babies live cause they enjoy the essence of life which is living for today, ceasing the moment, enjoying the smell of the earth after rain not looking at the damage caused by the flood. Babies see the brighter side of life and stay positive, adults see the side of life that cuts cost.


                                                
                 We acknowledge the fact that life is hard but a little smile a day helps you go a long way. The hardest workers don't earn the highest rewards, neither do the most serious people live longer lives. Life is a journey not a destination, so learn to stop, fall, giggle, rise up, cry, and believe. Life is what we make of it, it is too short to be taken too seriously, yet too fragile to be lived alone. Take each day with a smile, belief, risk, for these are the vital ingredients which give life its uniqueness. Live life like a baby, discover the baby in you.
