Hey Steemit! What’s new?
Being with my child 24/7 I began to think that grown-ups should learn to be sincere.
When my son likes something, he shows it very clearly: he claps his hands, he laughs, his eyes shine so bright. It’s so easy to make him happy — @cookiespooky coming home from work, grandparents visiting us, buying a new toy. These simple things make him so much fascinated and evoke genuine emotions. Emotions that we, adults, tend to forget. We forget to be thankful for every little thing we have and we are given.
Of course, it works not only for positive emotions. If he is unhappy or disappointed, rest assure it’s gonna be a fountain of emotions as well. If he can’t do something on his own, if we’re doing something he doesn’t want us to do, he also cries very genuine.
You cannot make a child do something he doesn’t want to do. For example, if my son refuses to eat soup, he won’t eat it. No matter what you do. He won’t kiss daddy or grandma goodbye because he is upset about their leaving.
What is more, his mood changes every minute! And sometimes I’m at loss with it.
But I can’t help wondering, what if we lived as sincere as children do? Would our lives be different if we weren’t afraid to express our true feelings all the time? And if yes, then how it would differ?
What do you think about it, guys?
Thanks for reading!

Our lives would have a lot more colours and mesmerising moments than now) but there would be a wild parade of dramatic events too, I think)
Well it’s the other side of being sincere ;)
Yeah, that's true)
