As long as we're happy and respectful of others, I think we'll be okay.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Fearless:<BR/>Yeah, I'm quite sure I was like the kids when I was young. I also agree that once we're out of it, we can never recover the innocent and trusting state of mind. For better or for worse, I really can't recall how it felt like then.<BR/><BR/>"Sheltered" - that's the word I was looking for!<BR/><BR/>As parents, we're now the shelter for our kids from the "true" world. In fact, a shelter and a screen. At this stage, not only do we give protection by giving shelter, we also screen out those we deem unfit; and for those we deem fit, we give interpretation, our interpretation. As they grow older, and we start to lift the shelter and the screen, they'll be exposed to the "true" facts of life (if there really are "true" facts of life lying out there) - much like how the veil hiding the true identity of the TV characters was lifted. But how they perceive these facts of life in the future really depends on how we operate our screen and shelter when they are young. (Gee ... this totally deserve another post - you think?)<BR/><BR/><BR/>Gagay:<BR/>Happy hopping!

When we are kids, we see people and events with innocent eyes, eyes that have yet to "see" The Truth. As a child even as an adolescent I had "no clue" about the realties of life perhaps because I was too sheltered or perhaps because I lived in my own fantasy world as most young people do. No worries? That is an understatement. Talk about freedom and peace... I can never recover those years or that state of mind, but I will never forget who I was then or how much I loved and trusted the world.Reflections Magazine editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03555277906740439990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-822355478515151453.post-64784111235362120392009-01-20T03:26:00.000+08:002009-01-20T03:26:00.000+08:00Too many of us get wrapped up in a fantasy and som...Too many of us get wrapped up in a fantasy and some find it really hard to accept the reality that they know to be true. All we can do is the best we can do with the knowledge we have at hand. Some people prefer to live in a fantasy world and it's not for me to say if that's right or wrong because many people believe the world we live in is a fantasy of sorts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-822355478515151453.post-57255255507772491712009-01-19T23:55:00.000+08:002009-01-19T23:55:00.000+08:00Jan:Yes, life IS a bitch.
