My Child ~

My eyes have been open to the world we are in, not by the chaos that surrounds us but by the single phrase uttered from my little humans voice. Confusion and uncertainty crossed my mind and flooded my face, my daughter asked to paint my fingernails which would leave a colorful trace. The question asked is simple and pure, why would anyone care Dad, and the answer is reluctant and full of fear. At that moment I realized the world is full of hatred and pain, why are we judged on the color of our skin and the gender in which we live. Why are we mocked for what we wear and how we look, the purity of my daughters words made my emotions shook. The joy she has to play is so innocent and free, I will never again be scared because I am human and I am Me!
