Be Mindful Child

Be Mindful Child is a short poem to remind us of how fragile and impermanent life is. When we rush through life treating it as a race rather than a journey we can miss so much of the joy of living. Take time to notice and be present in your day. Live a life with no regrets.
The is reading is backed by the beautiful music of Chris Collins (Blissful Healing- Reimagined).

Slow down my darling, What is the rush, There's just one destination for all of us to be still my darling, Be in your day, This is your time, To run and play, Don't race my darling, As you move through life and miss the moments between the day and the night, Don't run my darling, To reach the end, Be in the moment or with friends, Just know my darling, That life is so short, When you are older, Avoid the thought, It went too fast, My mind was forward or in the past, If only I had learnt to be, I would now have more memories to see, I could then live with no regrets, Being grateful for the life that I had led. Slow down my darling, Use my words to see, That starting right now, You can just be.
