Little Children

Children amaze me every day. I teach 4 year old's and I learn so much through them. They have not been tainted by society in most cases. Their imaginations are completely active and bright. They know when to be afraid and they look for guidance. They laugh and dance as if no one is watching. Nothing is truly embarrassing unless you care what others think.

I headed to the gas station last night and was amazed to see a little girl watching me closely. She looked  at me like she knew who I was and like I was a close friend. Like when little children see Mickey Mouse in Disneyland. I was completely enchanted by her stares. She began to wave quickly when she noticed me noticing her. I waved back and smiled, and to my surprise she began to seem within a dream. It was strange but I felt like she knew of my potential and could see past my scowls as the price rose to fill my tank. Her dad gathered her up and they left. Not without her eyes forever burning into me.

Always listen to the young of heart. They seem to always be uplifting and noble.
We can learn much from them.

Happy Holidays!
