I am always amazed when I see a toddler take a tumble and get right back up as if they didn't fell down in the first place. They are such champs!! So as a child we naturally pick ourselves up, dust off, and continue to move forward. When in life do we cripple or even lose that ability all together?
Are we truly products of our environment? And if so, is our environment actually that powerful to take such a consequential characteristic away from us. Is a skid knee really that bad to live with therefore, we avoid even the most minor fall in our lives?
Most the time skid knees only hurt for a short while and leaves no permanent evidence of its occurrence. Even on the occasion when we fall and the gravel and dirt are embedded inside so we have to go through the painful process of scrubbing it out, it is will not end up being a fatal wound. It could leave a gnarly scar but even the deepest scars fade with time.
So lets be as little children and not let skid knees stop us from getting up, dusting off and moving forward.
