When you are surrounded by children, the child in you comes back.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
How paramount the future is to the present when one is surrounded by children.
Children have a way of forcing you back into the present moment.
A lot of things you see as a child remain with you... you spend a lot of your life trying to recapture the experience.
You see much more of your children once they leave home.
A child's spirit is like a child, you can never catch it by running after it; you must stand still, and, for love, it will soon itself come back.
Soon the child learns that there are strangers, and ceases to be a child.
The child inside of you knows how to take things as they come, how to deal most effectively and happily with everything and everyone it encounters on this planet. If you can recapture that childlike essence of your being, you can stay 'forever young at heart.'
The arrival of any child brings you a lot of happiness.
When you have a child, your previous life seems like someone else's. It's like living in a house and suddenly finding a room you didn't know was there, full of treasure and light.
There is no child left within me, none whatsoever.
