What if we embraced life like our little people do?

I took these photos other day when our family was visiting the coast. Despite the windy, drizzly day the kids thought being at the beach was the best thing ever. They ran around like lunatics, shrieking and jumping waves.

It started me thinking.  When do we lose this joy?  Why do we lose it and how do we take it back?

What if instead of being afraid to take the first leap, we ran in head first. Trusting that we’ll still be ok when we get knocked down.

What if we were always looking for the fun in every day?

What if fun was as simple as an ocean swim on a freezing cold day?

What if we weren’t afraid to cheer for ourselves?

What if we kept smiling even when the days are miserable and grey?

What if we embraced life like our little people do?

What would life be like then?
