Rekindle The Childlike Wonder

I went for a swing in the playground. It was magical. I felt like a kid again.

It's so true that somewhere along the way, we tend to lose that sense of wonder...the childlike wonder. Often we just leave it as a past joy. We filter it out and focus on other more important stuff. Pretty much that is what we do. But really, the things children see and experience are amazing. We all did too during our childhood. So, let's learn from them and look. Even if its for a brief moment, learn and look at the world through the eyes of a child.

Let's rekindle the childlike wonder in us...

THE MEASURE OF A MAN

THE MEASURE OF A MAN
Author: Anonymous

Not - How did he die? But - How did he live?
Not - What did he gain? But - What did he give?

These are the things that measure the worth
Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.

Not - What was his station? But - had he a heart?
And - How did he play his God-given part?

Was he ever ready with a word of good cheer?
To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?

Not - What was his church? Not - What was his creed?
But - Had he befriended those really in need?

Not - What did the sketch in the newspaper say?
But - How many were sorry when he passed away?

These are the things that measure the worth
Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.
