Young children possess what Zen calls ‘beginner’s mind.’ They are awed and fascinated with the wonder of the world, open to discovering and experiencing new things. Anything is possible. Life is a great adventure.
For almost all of us, the systems that ‘educate’ us to be adults stifle our natural joy and curiosity. We lose touch with our innate appreciation of life. We forget how to dream.
The blessing is that with attention, patience and love, we can reawaken our sense of wonder. We can again dance with life.
--------------------
I always try to keep this blessing and then i dance with life. Even today i was singing and almost dancing as i was walking on the street to a friend of mine to have dinner together. It is great to wonder on every beautiful moment of life and enjoy all of them. Please try to do it yourself as well.
