Return to your natural state of loving kindness, free expression, trust in goodness and joyful living.
Sweet innocence……not naivete.
Natural expression....no withholds or cleverness.
Open loving……..no guilt, resentment or fear.
Be as a child.
Let go of trying to be and simply be Who You Are.
Melt away the stress of conforming and simply enjoy your uniqueness.
Release what is not filled with the simple happiness of now.
How difficult did it used to be to be a child?
Run and play in the sun and wind, the rain and snow.
Greet everyone with a smile and friendly ”hello”.
Discover new and interesting things all day long.
Come home for dinner with your whole family every night.
Play outside with your friends until dark.
Be free to ride your bikes to friends’ houses and the corner store.
Do your homework with a snack right after school.
Listen to music and dance and sing.
Play board games and cards with your family and friends.
Experiment with inexpensive ways to make your old clothes seem new.
Clean your room because it felt good.
Be proud of new shoes by keeping them polished and looking new.
Help your Mom set the table and clean and wash the car with Dad.
Say Please and Thank You always with everyone.
Open the door for your elders and help them be seated first.
Be glad for your first job in your childhood and teens.
Do special favors for others without being asked.
Share the money you earned with your family.
Be grateful for the privilege of using your parent’s car once in a while.
Never swear or talk disrespectfully with anyone.
Be proud of your family, your school and your nation.
Used to be......................
So much more freedom and trust.
So much more hard work and recreation.
So much more independence and exploration.
So much more respect and gratitude.
So much more happiness and peace.
Consider forgiving all that does not serve you.
Be willing to let go of fears and regret that haunt you.
Undo memories and media that do not bring peace.
Release those activities that do not feed your soul.
I love to learn from everything.
I enjoy the discovery of the smallest miracles of nature.
I sing songs of gratitude and praise for the beauty of this earth.
I am nourished by the gifts of kindnesses and celebrations.
I plant gardens and cook with the children.
I share games and crafts that everyone can do together.
I try out new recipes and combinations of food.
I listen to what each individual needs to be at their best.
I love being a kid and trusting God in all things.
I love being innocent and listening within for the Goodness in my heart.
I love laughing and enjoying each healing and holy moment.
I love being the One I Am and being in your Presence with gratitude for YOU!
Let us “innocentize” our selves.
We can bring the sweetness of a child back into ourselves.
Let us choose to live more naturally and in love.
Loving you and me together as we reclaim our inner freedom and trust.
