Who’s Afraid of Little Ole Life?
from The Everyday Human · host Eastin DeVerna
February: On LifeFebruary 7Today's reflection was inspired by a quote from Maya Angelou’s poem/children’s book “Life Doesn’t Frighten Me.”When you hear the words courage, bravery, and mettle, you might think of a superhero, a soldier, or a firefighter. You probably don’t imagine a child putting themself back to sleep in the middle of the night without getting Mom, or a child taking a deep breath at the top of a slide before going down, or a child stepping past the tree line into the woods after imagining all the ghouls and goblins that might be lurking in the dark.But children are some of the bravest humans around, tackling a world of firsts each and every day. And it’s the seeds of bravery we have as children that grow into trees of courage, allowing us to do great things as adults.What are you facing in life today that requires the bravery of a child?Reflection title: Who’s Afraid of Little Ole Life?Creative inspiration: Maya Angelou, “Life Doesn’t Frighten Me”Reflection Question: What am I facing in my life that requires the bravery of a child?
