And he said:
“Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” – Mathew 18:3 NIV
~
I long to return to the world of my childhood
where there is no care in the world
playing, alone, self-contained
fully present in the now moment
moving by impulse, pure, innocent, curious
bright-eyed, frisky, exuberant
no worries, no judgement of right and wrong
no guilt feelings, no baggage
light, free, unconditioned
wounded from the game, but holds no grudges
no self-pitying, just accepting, and moving on
no projecting into the future
no lingering in the past
indeed, to enter the kingdom of God is to become like a child again.

The essence of Divinity shines out of that child and oh how we need more of “that” here in our reality. Lovely post, thanks Allu
