What does it mean to be a kid at heart? – Asks the daily writing prompt today. I didn’t look at last year’s answer to this question on purpose. I wonder how alike they are.

Just a few off the top of my head:

  • To play from dawn to dusk.
  • To dance like nobody’s watching.
  • To run like the wind.
  • To sing out loud with abandon.
  • To laugh so hard you fall to your knees holding your stomach.
  • To pretend you are anything you want to be.
  • To take risks.
  • To say what’s on your mind.
  • To not know prejudice.
  • To look at the world with amazement each day.
  • To experience new tastes for the first time.
  • To learn new sports.
  • To make good friends.
  • To crash on a bike or skateboard for the first time.
  • To learn from mistakes.

There are many things to being a kid at heart. Unfortunately many are cut off with kids experiencing traumas at a young age. These change the whole experience of youth.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
