CHILDHOOD..BEAUTIFUL PERFECTION

The annual spring cleaning is here...time to clear out the cobwebs to usher in the Lunar New Year! Was clearing junk from the old chinese cabinet last night and found so many old faded photographs of years gone by...photos r faded but not the memories..they still live on...funny how some photographs can evoke such strong emotions of happiness, tears of joy and pain, sorrow and laughter....streams of suspended memories....

I had a wonderful childhood nothing to complain ..always brought to wonderful places and travelled to beautiful places like Bangkok, Australia and many many more...Of course the zoo still holds many fond memories for all of us needless to say. Like the nursery song that goes " Daddy's bringing us to the zoo tomorrow, zoo tomorrow zoo tomorrow, we're gonna stay all day..." Oh what joy...simple fun..Joy to the world ..all the boys and girls..joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea..joy to U & ME~!

CHILDREN
Children of Innocence born from lotuses we pray
Holy ascended Masters from 3 lifetimes hear us
Inexhaustible karma from beginingless times O purify them

Leave our tears behind and fill us with an ocean of Bliss!
Dear fathers and mothers of true wisdom & compassion
Rain showers of blessings on our body, speech & mind
Ever present to protect us from demons within and without
Never let us be separated from the triple gems till samsara ends we pray!

I luved swimming when i was a kid..my dad used to bring me
to the Queenstown Swimming Complex without fail every weekend..come rain or shine....you can tell by the looks on my face ya..hahaa..

Best times of my life...no cares in the world..what innocence ..the nature of a small child..Innocence is within, deep inside? Dive deeper into rediscovery ...whats at the bottom of the swimming pool??? Nothing but cracked tiles and gold rings.. Rediscover the child within? Seems that the joy and wonder have been long gone replaced by pain and suffering...what if? what if all these are reversed?

Seems as if I have suddenly remembered something I've truly forgotten for a long time...Spending time with children taught me to believe , to play and to love without agenda. The only hidden agenda is LOVE? Children swiftly makes me truly smile from my heart and see the wonder....when the heart listens, the Angels sing...they teach us how to live, teach us how to love, teach us with the light of love...

My favourite bike! ...luved cycling up and down the corridors ....>>>>
Don't snatch my bike..I BITE!....hahahaa.now the corridors r not big enough for me...ahhahaa
As kids, we didn't have any ego the size of an african elephant, no attachments...except to mummy's breasts maybe...hehe...no preconceived notions....can this be it? Getting back to the basics..back to our original nature of innocence..return to the perfected seed...hmmm..i wonder..even an ugly demon will turn into almond pudding in the face of an innocent child with a pair of doe-like eyes...let the shackles of ego-binded chains be free..absolutely pure, pure absolut..not the Vodka..:O)...slip away

All kids are beautiful.... look back into the past...see the future? behold the rainbow..blooming lotus...is this it? the miracle of Love?? become little children all over again? Remember this verse from school.."become little children and enter the kingdom of heaven"...oh..the return to innocence...

Oh my sleeping child, the world so wild..but you build your own paradise..Paradise here on earth...


~AWAKEN THE SLEEPING CHILD. HAPPY indeed they live...like a moon free from dark clouds..
*with metta.....peace out..
