Our Inner Child

by Barbara Lynn Terry

There is a saying, that we should never

get too far from our childhood, because

it is the essence of who we are.

If we combine our childhood with the

years as we grow, we can have the

best of both worlds.

Men can teach their sons,

on the child’s level of understanding

making for a true father/son bond.

Mothers teach their daughters,

about the things they will need

to know as they get older.

But the children should always be told

to keep hold of their childhood,

because it is who we really are.

So even though we may learn as we grow,

we must always keep that inner child,

that we were so many years ago.
