Hello my friends,
Lets really think about our children!!!kathy/simikathy
When the child lives with despair:
People saw you as a child, they never really saw you unless they got close enough to see the sadness in your eyes, or that worried look on your brow ... You behaved like a child ... but were you really playing? ... Or were you an outsider who was just going through the motions? If people were really noticing you then they would have seen that you did not have the spontaneity that most of the other kids had. Actually no one noticed ...Why? ...They could not notice it unless they got very close to you ... and the sad thing is ... if they did get very close they in all probability would not understand what it was that they were seeing.
It matters not what other saw and said, the fact remains that you never really ever felt like a child. You didn’t even have a sense of what it’s like to have a child’s feelings.
A child equaling a puppy dog make an excellent metaphor.
The child should be able to be like the puppy. Offering and receiving love freely and easily, scampering about, some what mischievously, playfully ... doing things for approval or reward, but at the same time doing as little as possible.
The Most Important aspect of being either the puppy or the child is being carefree...
If a child is like a puppy, then for you, you were never a child!
