Today my inner child skips with joy.

Today the cnild within me skips for joy but only a few weeks ago, my inner child was struggling with the rhythm: one-two-three, one-two-three,heel-toe-step. My feet wanted to run away or hop wildly, as if saying, "yoiu only have two of us, and we go one-two, one-two. That's all we can do. Thats all we can do"

Yet deep inside, I felt another rhythm - graceful as a dance and clever as a riddle. So I persevered and one day my feet put a hop and a run together one-two-three and I skipped perfectly: The next day my feet got tangled and I had to start over again. And soon my feet were skipping without me telling them to.

Today I feel the joy of living, which my hard work has made easy: I look back over my struggles and marvel at how far I have come.
