Not pure.

I have realized something today when I read an entry of someone else's.

I've realized the beauty of innocence. I realized how far and how different I am now that I'm not innocent.

Being a kid is just so awesome... it's not even talking about the fact that there's no responsibility... It's just in the simplest form: pure. Kids don't lie... they don't know how to. And they don't know the difference between being too needy or being an attention whore... and if they are that, they cannot be blamed for it because they are so young. I love the beauty of youth. Kids don't have to analyze anything. They see things as is. They don't analyze it and think about what it could be or what it couldn't be... they only know that it is... it exists. Don't you see how beautiful that is?

That is the one thing that I wish we could keep about ourselves... that pureness. Can you imagine a world where people don't lie? Where we aren't afraid to be ourselves? There's no such thing as prejuidice. There's nothing wrong with acting one way over another... no personality clashes and we get along with everyone. No misunderstandings because there's nothing to misinterpret. Do you see how beautiful that is? But we could never be that, because we're not pure. We can't retain our innocence forever.
