If I Could Rewind Time

There are times when I see a movie or read a book and thoughts come to my head about how I wish I could rewind time and start over. Here is a poem that spells the way I feel today. 

 

If I Had My Child To Raise Over Again 

 

If I had my child to raise all over again,

I’d build self-esteem first, and the house later.

I’d finger-paint more, and point the finger less.

I would do less correcting and more connecting.

I’d take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.

I would care to know less and how to care more.

I’d take more hikes and fly more kites.

I’d stop playing serious, and seriously play.

I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars. 

I’d do more hugging and less tugging.

I’d see the oak tree in the acorn more often

I would be rim less often, and affirm much more.

I’d model less about the love and power, 

And more about the power of love. 

 

I don’t know who wrote those words but they speak to my soul and speaking about soul, I love the new movie by Pixer. If you have not watch soul, what are you waiting for? 

 

Con amor,

Vero
