My Belief

So I'm writing this a little late and I see where Amy is going with this. For my essay I'm thinking about writing either about fate or how a young child has a lot to teach if you are willing to listen. I think I will pick the 2nd topic for today.
I believe that you can learn a lot from a young child. You just have to be willing to listen. My son teaches me something new every day. From the moment he was born, I learned that I need to care about people other than myself. When you have a child you have no choice but to let go of selfishness. Any extra bit of money that I might have I spend on my son. Not because I feel that I have to, but because I want to.
As he grows so does his ability to teach me about being a better person. He is entering the "terrible two's" which in itself is a learning experience. One positive thing I was able to bring out of his temper tantrums is his ability to express emotion. When he is mad, the world will know about it. I have also learned for his joy and excitement in the most ordinary of objects. He is one of the happiest children I have ever met. Although many kids are scared of strangers, Angelo says "hi" to every person he comes into contact with. He also notices little things that I am to busy to see. He will be in awe over an airplane flying through the sky, or squeal with joy when he sees a dog running at the park. I think everybody needs to take a lesson from children.
