This episode at Feather & Foundation celebrates our WOW word of Carefree. You might have just read that and said, "what is that?" It might have been a while since you've experienced that feeling. This episode was inspired by hanging out with my 5-year-old granddaughter, as I got to observe her view the world in her carefree spirit. It made me realize how much I admired her sense of awe, creativity and inspiration, and how much I had been missing being more carefree. This episode may create some nostalgia, as you think about your little child in those carefree days.
Hanging out with little people is a joy in seeing how they see the world. There is just such a carefree attitude in how they approach everything. In the seriousness of life and all the things as an adult we need - being carefree gets buried. As children outgrow toys and put them away, much could be said about as we grow into adulthood, we tend to put away that childlike carefree attitude. When we can touch back to the past and nostalgia, we can invite carefree living and being. Being carefree is a quality, state of mind that wants to come out and play more often in our lives. We just need to invite it and embrace it. It creates well-being and overflowing joy in our soul.
