One day you`ll see yourself on a meadow. In the distance you`ll hear a laugh of a child. You`ll be attracted by the laugh and you`ll want to get closer.
As you get closer, you see a big tree standing alone. The laughter is louder now.
You want to see who is laughing so beautifly and innocently. You get even closer and you see a swing on the tree. And closer, closer… you see a little girl on that swing.
She is laughing and she looks absolutely free from the world`s trouble. You forgot how this felt. You want to be like her. She reminds you of yourself when you were her age. She has long brown hair with bangs that dances on her head as she is swinging. She has big green eyes and she smiles constantly.
You come close to her, really close. She stops swinging, but still sits on her swing looking at you with her big green eyes. Her eyes are smiling at you.
You`ll ask her what is her favourite thing in the world and she`ll say: “Freedom! I like to be free! This is the most beautiful thing that can be!”
You look around yourself confused. First of all, you have no idea where you are. Second, you are talking to some unknown kid and third, she gave you an answer that is way too smart for someone her age! I mean, kids don`t talk like this, don` they? Of course they do, you silly you! You just fail to see it!
When you were a kid you dreamt of being older. You looked up to grown ups and wanted it. Sooner that you could`ve imagined, you did grow up. The kid inside you got lost as you were eager to kick her out. She never stood a chance in this shalow, consumerist world.
But one day, if you are strong enough, if you search deep inside, if you manage to get out of shalowness that bounded you… you will see her. She`ll come to you without warning as a vision. You will cry because this will break you. She will be right there where you had left her – swinging from a tree, sorrounded with greenery! She`ll be waiting as no time passed by.
She would still have that laughter, those big smily eyes and innocence only a child could have.
So what`s up with this? Where is your inner child? Do you remember her? What did she look like? What was she fond of? Who was she afraid of? Was she fearless?
If you find her one day, tell her to be fearless. Fear is the biggest thing that stops us from being us.
And tell her to be free.
