What can you possibly learn from a child?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


by Kirsten Cowart

Why is it that whenever we see children our first instinct is to try and teach them something?  How to think, how to live, how to play, how to work, the lessons go on and on.

Once they are barely old enough to write, many children start attending school. Education becomes the central point of the young persons life. They are conditions to the rules and regulations of modern society and mentally conformed to our left-brain way of being, and a lot of the freedoms that the child was born with are trained out of them.

Now, i’m going to leave the moral discussion about our modern education out of this discussion, but the core idea here is something that’s rather interesting to observe.  Perhaps in this world, where all things are contained in their opposites, there is something that we can learn from children, just as we feel so strongly that they have something to learn from us.

Perhaps the wisdom we are searching for has been right in front of us this whole time.

Check out this video of Alan Watts speaking about the deep wisdom of Youth.

“I wonder what they will have to teach us!” -Alan Watts
“Wisdom comes from the bottom up!” -Alan Watts

What can we learn from the simple and enthusiastic world of a child?  How can we bring the magic of childhood back into our lives and learn wisdom all over again?

Perhaps there is a way for us to relight the inner fire and see the world again through youthful eyes.

Much love,
Kirsten
