Have you ever been told that you're behaving like a child. How did you react, what was your response? You flirred up right? Or you probably got irritated and disgusted. You feel embarrassed when you are being told you act like a child. Hmmm... Is it absolutely wrong to be childlike? A question I asked myself few days ago.
First of all, what are the attributes or characteristics of a child?
A child believes and trusts totally
A child forgives and moves on easily
A child loves unreservedly
A child dreams of the future
How many people have lost faith in themselves and in others? You stop believing or trusting because of past failures. You hold on to grudges, you live a life of guilt and you see obstacles rather than possibilities. You find it hard to love again because you've been hurt severally. You don't want to open up to others anymore because you've been disappointed over and over again.
Do you still see a bright future ahead of you like a child or the circumstances of life have blinded your vision? You feel you're too old to dream again and age is no longer on your side. You don't want to try again because you have failed severally.
Oh...like a child, just as I once was. Even though my face may no longer be like that of a child, my faith will be. Although my stature and physique are no longer like that of a child, I will let my heart be.
I will trust again and keep trusting
I will try again and keep trying
I will smile again and over again
I will hang on, I will not lose hope
I will not give up on me or on others
I will love again and keep loving
Yes! I will dream again and see the cloud shine so bright
Like a child, I want to live, I want my heart to be
