Tell Me Children of the Earth
“Tell me child of the earth, what you have to tell me that as an adult I have forgotten?” I ask earnestly both of my own inner child, and the children of the world. If the child could answer, this is what I imagine he/she would say to me……………:
Firstly, this is a question from the head, and I am too busy exploring with every sense I have, about my world and the things around me without judgement. This in itself is a remembering the way it was once. Awe, and curiousity mixed up with a good dose of a love of the presentation that brings untold delight that tickles the senses endlessly, is my playground.
There is only exploration, no judgment, or limitations, only trust and freedom for everything to expose themselves just as they are, without any facades or embellishments, games, or illusions.
Seeing how adults live in confined spaces of their own rule making, I am a child who simply values my innocence for as long as I can have it. If you remember the child within, you will remember rules, and boxes being introduced immediately the taste for freedom became too strong. This was since the beginning of your consciousness, and if you look closely, see if you can see where the beginnings of losing the concept of being pure love began to disappear.
That was because the growing child was so busy trying to learn about his/her environment, and new imposed rules by adults, that the flow of love began to begin to be limited over being free. Were all the imposed rule makings necessary? If you had your time again as parent, would you think twice about making rules, and saying either yes, or no, instead of gentle guidance to make exploration easier?
Before the rules, it is clear to the minds eye how free the love a child had, and how this love could have been a litmus test to gauge how well adults were learning about love. Instead of learning how freeing this could be, all that became reflected was the very rules made up by adults that became the controls placed on love for lack of trust in the process.
With that distortion, adults never thought that they could have learnt anything from kids, whereas the key lessons could have been learnt right here. Instead, the falls of the adult, was also imposed on the kids of the world. And that is the sorry mess today, as kids get lost in the shuffle of fear and terror, because love has been so forgotten.
Can you learn something from your inner child, and the children of the world? Only if the conditioning and the cultural aspects put into the adult mind can be suspended so that an objective look of wonder can be allowed to happen as the kids show the way to unconditional love.
Do you have the strength to let go of all of the ideas that have come and gone in order for such an observation to take place? The kids of the world would love to teach the adults, and I hope by giving a small voice for them in this blog, that it might spur our thoughts to go back to the beginning, in order to free up the ending for a beautiful finale.
