Keeping your childlike wonder

Keep your childlike wonder

I know I am approaching the second half of my life, and that I have more time behind me than in front of me. Yet even still, in my heart and in my soul, I am still a child. 

I am still in awe of a sunrise or a sunset. I will dance anywhere when my favorite song comes on. I will open my windows in my car and sing, even if it's awful on the top of my lungs. I am up to trying anything. Even a rock climbing date, and even though I am afraid of heights because I don't want to miss out on life. I will eat cream on the beach while it's dripping down my hands. 

I laugh loud and often, because I've seen so much pain that I am so grateful for the life I have now. Be child-like, who cares what anyone thinks, they don't pay your bills. I never want to grow up, I am Tinkerbell. I will embrace this life, this moment with all I have. Because we are not promised tomorrow. 

I say it all the time, I want to go screeching into my grave yelling what a frigging ride! I will have no regrets, I will live my life, my way whether you like it or not, I don't care.

I've spent too many years worrying about what others think. And seriously are they paying your bills? Does it really matter what they think or say in the end? No, so I live life large with childlike eyes 

So today my friends remember, it's okay to act like a child. Skip, sing, dance in the kitchen or the gym like me. Never stop being in awe of our amazing world. We only get one life, live it large, be childlike, enjoy each day as if you're seeing it for the first time. 

Because we never know if it may be our last.

Love the child within you.
