New Born Freedom

So it's just that, no one can really do anything about it. We just have to sit here and deal with what is thrown at us.
It's like a poker game. Your dealt cards and you have to bet on what you have, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. Anyway, you have to
live with what’s given, and you have no choice.

What ever happened to choices, the free country? I guess delinquents don't apply. Children even.

Think from the point of view as a child. Young, new born, vulnerable. They take everything new like it’s a new beginning. They forget everything about
the past and take a new point of view. They know theirs always something new in store, ok maybe they don't know it, but that’s how it seems. To us " older" ones, we don't feel it anymore

Like Christmas. I remember when I was little and every Christmas eve we would visit my grandparent’s house. I would be so ecstatic that
Santa would visit us. Waiting over the window as soon as my parents put me to sleep. Listening closely to hear the sounds of those wonderful silver bells. And then having my parents tell me to go back to bed because they heard me yelp as I swore I heard the wonderful sound of those holiday bells. Then, waiting in bed, eyes never closing. Staying up all night just to wait till morning. The excitement that filled me, the eager adrenaline that ran through my veins. The imagination I had, picturing Santa’s sleigh, his red rose and his reindeer. Walking downstairs to see the wonderful tree. The aroma of pine in the air, making its way up my cold pink nose. The presents, in gold foil, shining just like my smile. The joy in my heart that surrounded me.

And now, as a teen, the magic is gone. All the magical aspects of life as a child just wither away as years go on. Were opened up to the real world, reality at its best. What the world is truly mad of. As we know, it's not all its cracked up to be. The world has its sucky parts too. The parts that make you have nightmares at night, to the parts the make you feel alive, and of course their that moment where all you wish is to be a child again, just hoping for that child like spirit, that that spirit is long gone.
