Welcome to Take 45,

The Eyes of a Child.

You have received another day on planet Earth.

Let's land on the ground,

Become aware of your body,

Your weight and posture,

Your breath,

In moments of inhalation and exhalation.

Become aware of all the sights,

Sounds,

Thoughts and feelings inside you and around you.

Become your awareness.

You are a vessel for all experiences.

You are a vessel for all experiences.

Did you ever meet the gaze of a young child?

Eyes wide open,

Completely absorbed in the moment.

If you look yourself in the mirror,

Deep into your own beautiful eyes,

What do you see?

Much may have happened on your life's path,

Many armours added,

Many curves in the inner democracy.

But every time you look into the eyes of a child,

You are reminded of your own beginning,

How it all started for you.

Do you remember the curiosity,

The passion and imagination when you were playing games together?

It's all here,

Still.

All the shimmering stars you see in a child's eyes,

In the eyes of your beloved,

Are shining in yours as well.

And every time you embrace someone you love,

You also feel your own softness and sensitivity.

Sure,

On the outside your skin might not be as soft,

But on the inside,

In your tissue and flesh,

You are just as soft,

Just as sensitive,

Just as vulnerable.

This inner child is with you throughout your life,

And regardless of what kind of upbringing you've had,

It's never too late to recover this treasure.

All this life force,

Vitality and joy has just been hidden.

Remember,

You hid it here,

So deep inside yourself that no one could ever take it away,

But so deep that you might have forgotten about it yourself too.

And now we are finding it again,

Together.

The hidden treasure of the heart,

This treasure of freedom,

Love and peace,

The only richness in this world that really counts.

.

Wow,

You did it.

You finished the fifth level and now you enter the last week.

What an achievement.
