for those who proclaim they’ve grown weary of children there are no flowers
~ Matsuo Basho 1644–1694
So true. It is the sight of young children that in part keeps my mind/heart fresh and young in spite of the advancing years.
Any others share this?

I don't have children, but if I had children I'd want them following those fields, sewing their hearts in those fields of flowers, as it's the only time they will have, and the more they take those fields in, they'll remember them upon when they have children, let their children grow,and see the beauty of life is the gain of giving yourself to the only thing we know of life really, nature. Adults make mystics of what children yearn, and without question see, the children laugh and play.
