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
