Children in general are very innocent, spontaneous and honest beings. Their minds are not polluted with abundance of information. When they do something, they usually don't think in advance about the negative consequences it may cause. It's because they don't have enough experience. When they like or dislike something, they spontaneously express their emotions.
How many of us, older people, react immediately with an honest emotion instead of thinking about the fact or what would the other people think about us? At first we calculate and then, if our social status and rational thinking allows us to do so, we give a positive or a negative rating to a thing or a person. And it seems to me that we become more robots than humans. Isn't it sad?
If I could learn one thing from a child, I would choose the sane human mind they have until the society brings them into a mammal thinking according to a conformity schedule. Why not to be more human? I think it would help the whole population, the nature and every human being personally.
We shouldn't categorize everything only into two categories (the good and bad things, the better and worse people than we are). Why don't we have a look from another point of view? Things are not only black and white.
The problem is that it is hard to be so cheerful and spontaneous these days, because the today's society has strict rules: if you differ from the mainstream behaviour, you are considered weird or mad. People become so insane that they proclaim insane the things that make them humans. And only children are excused, because they are considered too stupid to 'understand'.
I'd like to learn from children how to be a human.
