Comments on: What I Learned From…Children http://stephenpsmith.com/blog/2010/02/what-i-learned-from-children/ The personal weblog of Stephen P Smith Thu, 12 Aug 2010 13:12:59 -0700 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Todd Jordan http://stephenpsmith.com/blog/2010/02/what-i-learned-from-children/comment-page-1/#comment-71645 Todd Jordan Mon, 08 Feb 2010 16:29:21 +0000 http://stephenpsmith.com/blog/?p=1442#comment-71645 Believe. Key word there. I've been caught up in beliefs again, even though I'm regarded as a bit of a dreamer and open minded. I've fallen prey to feeling like I'm past the point of possibilities. I'm 45 1/2. What I need is to recapture that childlike unbelief. Unbelief in impossibilities. Thanks for this reminder. Todd @tojosan Believe. Key word there.

At times it feels as if the point to every bit of feedback we receive is to limit our reach, push our gaze to the ground. I like the idea of 'relearned not to believe that lots of things are impossible.' That's a lesson plan I can get behind.

I think that's one of the saddest things - that we forget HOW to believe in wonderful things when we grow up. *sigh* A tip o' the hat to childlike faith in things worth believing in! Very true, Stephen. I think that’s one of the saddest things – that we forget HOW to believe in wonderful things when we grow up. *sigh*

A tip o’ the hat to childlike faith in things worth believing in!
