I usually find myself saying that with age comes wisdom. It makes perfect1 when you consider all of the life experiences we have to learn from. 2 , that saying was just blown away by a five-year-old!
Robert and I took a road trip to 3 a friend. Our visit was filled with 4 activities like a trip to the zoo, botanical(植物学的)garden,playing on play grounds and 5 in coloring books.
Helen, Robert's five-year-old son, was my coloring partner. We 6 at the kitchen table each having our own coloring book. The book. I had was on7 On the front inside cover were the 8 of completed colored illustrations(插画)of each page of butterflies in the book. When I saw this I 9 told Helen Look, they have the pictures of the butterflies and how they are10 to look. You can look at the picture and then color the butterfly to 11 what they show. "
Helen's 12 to me was, "Oh, no. You don't have to color the butterflies like the picture. You can color them any way you13 "
What a 14 and powerful nugget(有用的想法)of wisdom. I colored my butterfly any color. I wanted and then created a butterfly15 . If I had copied the picture from the front of the book, it still would have been 16 but it wouldn't have been uniquely mine.
Perhaps we can 17 from our auto pilot way of thinking and look at some18 in our lives differently. Helen opened my eyes to new19in creativity. So, with age can come wisdom, but let's 20 the wisdom of children.
