KIDDO = kiddy attitude...

ok...was thinking over what you said today. kiddo trying to raise a kid.

i think to a certain extent you do make some sense. but as i think more. i think there is this amazing thing about a parent. when couples become parents, the kiddo in them is somehow passed on to the next generation. or in a way its being hidden, because a child, in my opinion has absorbed all their attention, and the kiddo in them is lost in someway.

or maybe the word hidden is a better word. i think we all grow up, but the kid in us remains there? just that we dont display it as often.?. like we gain more knowledge and become more mature, but what was in us previously has not left, but instead found another spot in our character, and personaility, whichever it is.

and as my train of thoughts progresses, i thought of my parents. where is the kid in them? think the kid is still there, just that, they dont show it to me, or in a more technical term, do not display it. yupz. and in history we learn the LORMs. so i was trained to think further.

now i am somehow intrigue to know more about your life, (and i do mean it. haha)
what kind of kiddo you were when you were in my years.
what has changed in you?
what has remained>?
what would change when you make the decision to bring a new life in to this world?
what changed when it is brough it in?
is the kiddo still there?

hmm....then my complicated and amazing brain directs me to think of the grandparents.
is there still a kid in them?
i guess so. i think in a family it might or might not be hard to show the kiddo in everyone of all the generations.meaning parents child, and grandparents, but usually i think in our culture, the 'kiddo' is hidden. we are constantly nagged at, and all the endless...zzz...but still i think all our parents can be really lame, funny, and do things that we never imagine our parents will ever do? and it is at this precise moment that we realise how much alike are we from our parents. becuase the very fact is that we are part of them. not only in terms of bone and flesh, but in personaility as well.

the elements that holds us together, and gives us substance. do come from our parents too. it is this unspoken common link of both a parent and a child that makes a family unique in its own beautiful ways.

maybe we all yet to be parents people think of how our kids would turn out to be. i think what would make things easier is to find the comon link between yourself and your child.
more importantly find yourself in your child. for they are your reflection s .
find the element that you deposited into your child. and cherish what has piece your child together and apperciate your child as a whole...

now it explains why all parents have high hopes on their child. thats because we as the child is what they hope to see in themselves. sometimes the reflections are illusions. and sometimes the reflections are not what they hope to see.

guess we all must appreciate the differences and similarities in ourselves.

love is what binds two together.
