Taking children out somewhere always turns into a dramatic event. They rarely respond with a straightforward \u201cyes.\u201d They insist on carrying heavy bags on outings, or they walk slowly along a straight path when they could easily hurry. One moment they want something cold, and the next they\u2019re upset because it\u2019s too cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, when I invite my children to visit their grandmother, they often respond with a resounding, \u201cWhy? No, it\u2019s boring!\u201d\u2014a reaction that isn\u2019t favorable from an adult\u2019s perspective. Yet, once there, they invariably transform the environment with their boundless creativity and energy, even changing the atmosphere. Or, they might say something inappropriate to an elderly person, turning a minor issue into a major one. But this is precisely what I need to see at that moment. No matter how awkward it may be, it\u2019s something I need to clean with right then and there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This concept applies even when children aren\u2019t involved. Why? Because within me, there\u2019s another true self\u2014my inner child, or \u2018Unihipili.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have you ever felt like you couldn\u2019t get started on work, or found yourself making mistakes and feeling awkward at gatherings with friends despite your high expectations? It\u2019s not just children who can be challenging; sometimes, you may feel like you\u2019re the difficult one to handle. When you feel disillusioned by your own blunders, understand that what happened, what you felt, and what you did are things you need to clean with now. When you truly realize that your inner child is showing you what needs to be cleaned, your innate responsibility awakens. Through cleaning, you gain clarity on what you need to do next, as only the Divinity knows the true priorities. When you connect with your inner child, these priorities become clear, not just in thought, but as a tangible reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No matter what happens, what relationships surround you, or what state of mind and body you are in, you are okay. You possess a responsibility that is second to none.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
