The freedom to be unafraid,
even alone, connected
to a sense of purpose,
a trust in a higher being.
Never a thought given
to whether the attire is right,
hair just so, or whether or not
there’s enough money to live on.
Unfiltered honesty, a heart
full of wonder, a mind open
and eager to learn – will
unblemished by vanity.
Some call it naiveté
some call it innocence
I call it authenticity
this five-year-old sprite
whose simplicity of being
defies any other reality.
I like that “authenticity”. It is too bad we grow up and lose so much of our authenticity. However, sometimes we find it again in the third inning!
