whenever i look at my son, i feel i am missing being a child. his innocence and kindness makes me wish to be a child again. he never care about other people except himself and he owns his time. he swill sleep when he wants to and he will eat when he feels hungry. he doesn't care about how he look, his clothes, shoes, hair and face. he does not criticize other people and never say bad words against anyone. he laugh aloud even at smallest joke and he doesn't mind what other people say. he is genuinely happy and he appreciates even the smallest thing you will give him.
i wish i am child again... i wish i can own my life and have a peaceful mind. i wish...

its really weird how we wish we are grow fast when we are young then now wish we are child again. maybe because we don't expect such great responsibilities adults have. adults needs to meet expectations and so on, and if not you will be subjected to unjust judgment that may result to frustrations and depressions. unlike when you are a child, you are allowed to make mistake because you are a child. thanks for the response.

Oh, but don't we all! I look at my 2 year old grandson sometimes and think the same things. He is just so happy all the time and sweet and loves everyone and like you said has peace of mind and doesn't know what problems are. Bless his little heart. Love him. Love him. Love him.
I wish you could be a baby again too.

I recently got a job working at the local recreation center. Most of my job is supervising children. I have never worked with kids before. I really enjoy it. I love playing with the kids. I feel like one sometimes when we are playing tag together. I miss the simplicity of just having fun.

I understand what you feel and I also wish to be a child again like you do. Like you said, a child never criticize other people, and doesn't care of his/her looks, I wonder it myself too how all the child is very happy in a little thing, I forgot now how I look the world before when I was a child, how freely my heart and my mind before that I can run as mush as I can and roll in the playground with full of grass as much as I can, and while I'm lying down in the grass, I am watching the blue sky and describing any kind of shape of the clouds. I thank God for your life shylade for bringing this up, GOD BLESS you.

We can see godly pleasantness on the face children. No devil's feeling has place in a child's mind. So children can bring pleasantness and happiness to all mingling with them.

I guess that's a part of growing up, and we don't realize it, even though our parents always tell us that childhood is the best part of life. But as soon as we realize that there are things adults can do that we cannot, as children we want to grow up and be adults. I think it has to do with responsibility; children only have the responsibilities that parents put on them, and parents are quick to forgive if a responsibility is not met. As adults, we have many responsibilities; some we choose, but many are bestowed upon us, like it or not. And the world is less forgiving if we fail at a responsibility. Children don't see that part of life, and as such, life for them is bliss, or at least it should be.
It's fun to be a child, no vanity for the most part, and you get to pretend and no one challenges you. It's ok to think you can fly, when really all you are doing is jumping off the ground a bit. It's great when the lines between fantasy and reality don't matter all that much, life is all about fun.
Yes, it's great to be a child...in a loving home.

true, its fun to be a child without thinking of any problems and pressures. we adults have so much responsibilities that we sometimes forget to stop and for just once in our adulthood act like a child. a child symbolizes purity of heart and genuine kindness and innocence. i think we can have them if only we are not thinking too much of having much because in the first place we only need enough. thanks for sharing.
