Kids experience, discover, destroy through play and wonder. From the moment, my daughter opens her eyes in the morning, she is playing, singing, laughing, dancing, screaming, destroying, breaking....
It's amazing to see the energy and the enthusiasm children have about life, about their body, about exploration and being alive. By their presence, very often they teach us to laugh more, they teach us to stop taking things so seriously and remind us about play and creativity.
By the time I was 16 year old, I was told that I can't play any more because I need to be responsible and serious, I need to be an adult. In the present day, I get accuses of being "silly", "childish", "you never learned to take life seriously", "you never grew up".
As we become parents, we are also becoming children, we are remembering the power of play and wonder and imagination. As parents,we are learning to step away from the responsibilities for a while and be present and play. Through our children, we are healing ourselves. Children inspire us everyday by their presence in our lives. They don't have a concept of future, fear, doubt, responsibility and all that adult stuff. They use their imagination, they believe in miracles, they create miracles everyday. There are no limits in their universe.
Become inspired by your children and remember your unlimited power of playfulness and creativity.
