Latin



I don't know what to say..
the hopes and fears we carry,
sometimes they are light and easy,
other times heavy and demanding..
i had dinner with a friend and his family last night,
his young daughter so curious about everything,
"what's that?"
i told her many times and she kept asking..
it reminded me of when my son went through this..
the curious stage..
simply wonderful, fun, and annoying all at once.
i taught her some Latin..
"In Vino Veritas"..
she had fun saying it..
we should ever lose this curiosity,
of course we learn to embrace it differently as we mature,
but this sense of wonder is worth finding again..
and again..
otherwise,
we could become apathetic and bored..
