Subject: Through the eyes of a child
> When I look at a patch of dandelions, I see a bunch of weeds that are
going
> to take over my yard.
> Kids see flowers for Mom and blowing white fluff, you can wish on.
>
> When I look at an old drunk and he smiles at me, I see a smelly, dirty
> person who probably wants money and I look away.
> Kids see someone smiling at them and they smile back.
>
> When I hear music I love, I know I can't carry a tune and don't have much
> rhythm so I sit self consciously and listen.
> Kids feel the beat and move to it. They sing out the words. If they
don't
> know them, they make up their own.
>
> When I feel wind on my face, I brace myself against it. I feel it
> messing up my hair and pulling me back when I walk.
> Kids close their eyes, spread their arms and fly with it, until they fall
to
> the ground laughing.
>
> When I pray I say thee and thou and grant me this, give me that.
> Kids say, "Hi God!!! Thanks for my toys and my friends. Please keep the
> bad dreams away tonight. Sorry, I don't want to go to Heaven yet. I
would
> miss my Mommy and Daddy."
>
> When I see a mud puddle I step around it. I see muddy shoes and
> clothes and dirty carpets.
> Kids sit in it. They see dams to build, rivers to cross and worms to
play
> with.
>
> I wonder if we are given kids to teach or to learn from?
> No wonder God loves the little children.
