Through the eyes of innocence....

Great Expectations was a great book to read. We all go into life as children with all these views and ideas on how we want life to be. We view everyone through the lens of judgement and usually come to a screeching halt when we realize these judgements and expectations are all wrong. Life is not what it seems to be when we grow up. Too bad we can't live in a haze all of our lives. Things often seem more heavenly and perfect through the eyes of a child. The ideas of what life should be like are painted with rose glasses. It is a good idea at one point or another in our adult lives to step back and regain some of the fun and innocence of childhood. We should learn to see people and the world in a better light instead of the pessimistic, dreary way many adults see the future!
