Maybe.....Just Maybe....

The world is full of problems. No matter how hard we try, our lives will never be perfect. However, we can try to simplify our lives. I believe this can by done by simplifying our minds. If you're stuck on a problem, or in a troubling situation, start to think as a child does. Don't over rationalize. Don't over-complicate. Just take things step by step, visualize the situation, and address it as it is. Naivete is bliss.

If only everyone could start to address things as they are. There would be no need for extravagant cover ups, complicated explanations, or burned bridges. As a result, there would be no ignorant confusion, major misunderstandings, or extreme conflict. Deal with situations as the present themselves. This is this. That is that. Naivete is Bliss.

If only we could stick to our fundamental principles. Don't take what isn't yours. Put things back where you found them. Say you're sorry. If only we could follow these basic rules in all aspects of society, not just with our children, maybe we could finally find some peace around here. Maybe we could even find a chance once and a while to just take a nap.

In a child-like state of mind, everything is treasure. We could simplify our situations, take proper advantage of all opportunities, and even find a chance for some innocent love and friendship. If we were to address our social and professional lives now with what we learned, followed, and loved as children, perhaps, just perhaps, the world could have a few less problems.

Perhaps, because Naivete is Bliss.
