I was joking aroung with her and told her she couldn't wake up yet, because it was still really late at night, it wasn't morning yet. She exclaimed to me "Yes it is, see..." as she opened the curtain. She pointed up to the sun and said "Somebody turned on the big light in the sky!" At first I was stunned by what she said, then I was laughing uncontrollably! It was such an amazing insight as to how children view the world, and relate those things they don't understand to those things they do. To this day, when I don't understand why things have to happen the way they do, why things don't go right, why life has to be so hard sometimes...I just look up at the big light in the sky. sharleneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8001724361486350777.post-2880885306109894242009-07-28T03:22:22.657-07:002009-07-28T03:22:22.657-07:00Thank you for the beautiful reminder.....I will ha...Thank you for the beautiful reminder.....I will have to pass this along to a few people myself!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08000132258954274515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8001724361486350777.post-53698773766592983692009-07-27T12:52:52.853-07:002009-07-27T12:52:52.853-07:00Having a 1 year old myself it amazes me how curiou...Having a 1 year old myself it amazes me how curious they are about absolutely everything and how they never worry about the past or the future. They are only interested in what's right in front of them. I was wondering too when I forgot to be such an explorer, an observer and wonderer of life. My goal today and this week is too also be much more child-like, not forget responsibilities but to be in the moment. Enjoy the present as we are never guaranteed the future and the past is exactly that. Thanks for sharing!<br />Heather NortonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
