So, today being sunday, I had to go to church.
After singing worship songs with my friends, we sat down and Pastor Dale started his sharing. Okay I have a confession to make, I use my phone at times during the sharing (please don't kill me) and I guess what I'm about to tell you is the "punishment" from God.
Basically, I was seated down with my jacket on my lap (how SC-girl like right?) with my phone on top of it… and guess what happened. It slid of my jacket and dropped into the row in front of me… *facepalm*
Right at that moment my pastor asked the church to stand (we were going to pray) and the two girls about 4 seats from the right noticed my phone on the floor. They looked around and our eyes met. I gave them the "yes it's my phone, yes I know I'm stupid for dropping it" face. Our pastor started praying and we bowed our heads. As he was ending his prayer, this little girl came running up to my phone…
*KEY DRAMATIC MUSIC*
I was basically like this:
1. She was probably gonna take my phone and run back to her parents. I couldn't possible like grab her during prayer and snatch my phone back…
2. I couldn't storm up to her to and demand her to give it back… in front of like 10929312738 people...
But guess what this little girl did. She did something that I had not expected at all. She took the phone, looked around and then she looked up at me I stretched out my hand and before I was about to say: Sorry that's mine, she just placed it on my hand and skipped back to her parents.
I didn't know how I felt other than MY PHONE!!!! I GOT IT BACK!!!!!!
Thinking back about it, it kinda made me realise the innocence of a child.
That little girl didn't expect anything in return after picking my phone.
That little girl did not take it away from me.
That little girl did not laugh at me for being careless.
That little girl instead, gave it back to me without any hesitation.
It showed me how we should learn from children sometimes.
People this days are so judgemental and if it was an adult or youth who picked my phone up, they would probably leave having an impression of: "wow this girl is careless" about me or something else, as compared to this little girl...
Hence I'd like to end my blogpost with this poem:
A child's innocence
is because they are fresh and new
A child's innocence
is because they have not yet seen evil debut
A child's innocence
is because they are still pure
A child's innocence
is because they have been unchallenged for sure
A child's innocence
is because their life is so beautiful and clear
A child's innocence
is because they were not yet taught about fear
A child's innocence
is because they have not yet been taught to hate
A child's innocence
is because they are still loved with debate
A child's innocence
is something to that we should cherish
A child's innocence
is somthing that should not perish
A child's innocence
is our last hope
A child's innocence
could teach us to cope
