Children learn from us, and we in return, learn from them! There are times when their presence is enough to make us forget our own problems. Regards // paul

Yes, time with children and youngsters gives us a refreshed view of life..."out of the mouth of small children, wisdom is spoken.." I read your poem on how carefully you act as a wise mentor to your granddaughter- I really appreciated your insightful guidance on a young mind...lovely poem! Warm regards, Aqua M.

Yes, they do...we can learn so much from children, we tend to ignore them, but they are often very aware of who we are as adults - they learn a lot by watching others too...love your comment, Sunshine Smile! :)

Age and experience teach us responsibility install caution and fear hunch us. Children are fearless devoid of responsibility. A reminder we should also stop and smell the roses once in a while

So true, Christopher...and sometimes we should take the time to speak with children and youngsters- they love positive attention from adults...

What a lovely visit from you, Silent One! Very much appreciated! I think we underestimate the thoughtfulness in children- after all, they often "see" what adults see, and surprise us with comforting and inspiring thoughts! Thank you for your very welcome comment! (((Hugs)))
