I have always loved spontaneous actions and moments in life. Those have always been the best. Its a reminder of being alive, and knowing that happiness, above all else, is something treasured, pure and true.
I despise that we as humans worry. We worry about many things, lots of them we don’t have to. We watch movies like Fight Club, drooling at Brad Pitt’s beautiful body, but also wishing we could turn off all the sensors in our mind which cause us to worry. Money, bills, clothes, food…all elements our life that create extra creases in our brow line. Though essential for a comfortable life, they are things which sometimes we wish we could do without, or at least I do.
I treasure the smile of a child. Its real, true and full of amazement. Growing up is what we have to do. Losing the smile of a child isn’t something we have to do, and there is no reason why we can’t have it all.
Fear is the only way we learn. Yes, school is nice and helpful. But fear is our natural instinct at learning. A dog gets hit by a car, it learns the big metal boxes can hurt. We touch a hot burner on the stove, we learn not to touch it any more.
I’ve learned a lot about myself here lately. One notion I’ve come to love is I realize I need my “child-like” smile, and my maturity, to get me through whatever I’m facing, friend or foe. I’m not sure how the rest of my path will look, but I’m ready to drive hella fast right through it, laughing all the way.
Child-like.
