Without a Care in the world

i wish it were the days where everyone made 40 valentines for everyone in the class. where everything was so simple and not so complex. where someone saying they liked you meant they wanted to be friends. where school was just another place to sit and listen to someone talk for the day.

where life was rainbow colors and shiny new car toys. where my footprint in the snow was no more then the size of a cats print.

where stuffed animals where your best friends. and lollipops made the world all better.

where crying was when your mom said no more candy for you. where the days went by without a care in the world. where the only thing you had to remember that walking meant "left right left right"

where summers were filled with sunny skies and blue waters. where a hill of sand was a castle and you were the king and queen of the world . and the only rules where the ones you made.

where the rules of life were simple. say please and thank you and no pointing and dont go to far. where life was simple. and days went by without a care in the world.

Where winters were when you dressed up so much that you couldn’t move you arms. Full of falling on the ice and getting back up and trying again and again and again.

That was the thing about being a child. You thought you could do anything, no matter how many times you didn’t make it work, you never gave up. And most people forger that as they go along to live their lives. Thoughts full of logic and rules and lines that could not be crossed.
But when thought of in a true fashion, you could see past all of that and notice the simplicity of the world and the things around you. That a lollipop could still make the frown on your face disappear and the world my seem just a bit lighter.

where being a friend

meant one thing

it meant being there for one and other. understanding that you didnt have to understand why they were upset. the only thing you needed to know, was that you had to make them feel better. life is like a math question, you start out at 10 000 and you have to make your way to 0. but you dont know how to go about doing that. so you have to try all the combinations of words and equations. and no matter how many wrong turns you take, you will somehow, manage to make it to 0. no matter how long it takes. but you always have to remember, its ok to ask for help, that its ok to say i cant do this alone. its ok to let go even if just for a moment.

life will go on. and so will we. even through all the hardships and things we go through, there will always be the child in us that will get back up. and grab that lollipop. and try again. Thinking without a care in the world.
