Innocence is a natural component of your being. There is nothing to do, get, or achieve. By simply allowing yourself to be in the present moment, innocence will effortlessly wind its way into every moment of your life.
Most dictionaries we've read define “innocence” in the following ways:
Uncorrupted by evil, malice, or wrongdoing; legally blameless; sinless; not dangerous or harmful; candid; not experienced or worldly; naïve; suggesting no deception; childlike.
One of the best models for innocence is to observe a child at play. A child typically has no expectations when it comes to discovering a new playmate, animal, or toy. And children can be the perfect role model for each of us when it comes to remembering our inherent innocence, our ability to be in the present moment, and most of all, our natural inclination to enjoy our precious time together during this incarnation.
When we are truly innocent, we are at the level of the soul—we are in a place of purity that exists within us separate from all the conditioning we have experienced as humans on the planet. When we are innocent, we harbor no grievances, there are no scores to settle, there is no need to be right – we are defenseless and unconditioned and able to fully enjoy the present moment without our past disappointments, expectations, or “baggage” influencing our state of being.
Innocence is the fountain of youth, the secret of the universe, and the holy grail -- all within our grasp each moment of every day -- always ours for the asking.
I just wonder, what ever happend to my own innocence? So many bad things happen to us in life that in the end we end up loosing just what we need the most in order open our hearts and humbly receive God's love in every little thing we take for granted trough our days. I've lost so much faith in all, but I want to believe that every new day will seduce me with its fresh start aroma. With the Universe as an ally, working to give us the best results it can, the jurney trouhg this life should be nothing less than a blessing of possibilities, love and no regrets.
LOL, I just realized... I'm going to be just fine :)
