You mean we stop? I’m still trying to think like a kid whenever applicable – it’s just this whole adult thing keeps getting in the way.

I remember feeling like a fraud for the longest time – living the life of an adult when inside I still felt like a kid. Great quote.

Hopefully, never! Adults only think about boring things like money and vacuuming.

We do get caught up in the things that need our adult attention. It takes effort to remember what it’s like to think like a child, but it can be done! 🙂

Good! 🙂 I think when we do we tend to take things too seriously and then life becomes a burden to endure.

The way life goes sometimes, I almost lost the delight of wonder … and even now I am having to keep reminding myself to let it happen, to look through the eyes of childlikeness and SEE what’s there. And if I forget I have a friend who reminds me. We all should have and be that kind of friend.
Welcome to my blog, Louise. 🙂

We are all still kids. Our bodies age but our minds really don’t. I still feel like I’m 10. LOL

That explains it then, Tara, because I have to remind myself – when it seems necessary – how old I really am. Your feeling as if you are 10 makes for good books for us to read. 🙂
