Good advice, children are so innocent and are so full of wonder and curiosity. maybe we should look to them for true understanding.

I am always amazed when I see a little child. Realize they’ve learned something new the joy on their face, says it all.

Children understand more than we often do. I love seeing them learn and how the view our world with wonder!✨

Such a wonderful progression here, Trudi. The futility of seeking, the joy of playing.

Trudi,

Wise and excellent! The young and fresh brain finds its way through complexities the easy way! ( whenever I want to look into your earlier poems, I am bouncing back. I type my email (zsoltkohalmi44@gmail.com)

The answer: this email is private, sign in with a different email. If I do, it says: there is no account with this email, or they give me a single sign in six digit code, but still there is no success. I know you struggled with this earlier. I can create an account with my other email, if that is the way, I don't know.

I’m pleased you enjoyed this poem, Zsolt! I’ll look again at your access as I don’t understand why you can’t read everything in the archive. Let me check when I’m on my laptop!

Great piece Trudi. As I often say, the most wise patients I had where children, because they are true, they say what they think... and they say it naturally, without thinking

Trudi Nicola's avatar

They haven’t learned to apply filters and that’s healthy!

Just perhaps some wise perceptions here

To me life should always be one of curiosity seeking possibilities ( read that somewhere and resonated with me)

I think if one thinks you have found wisdom may I suggest you have not

To my mind it can never be a static state.

Ideas worth pondering

Just saying

Trudi Nicola's avatar

I like that Steve - to be curious and to seek possibilities. That’s what we are made for. ✨

One of the great ironies of life is we can find ourselves engrossed in laborious intellectual efforts just to try and recapture that pure un-biased knowing we all had as young children. Great piece again, Trudi 🙏❤️❤️

Trudi Nicola's avatar

Thanks Ross. I do it myself all the time, thinking if I read just one more book I’ll find what I’m seeking, forgetting I already know.✨
