Hold your little ones close, there’s nothing more irreplaceable. This is dedicated to both of my nephews and my niece.

In a world so lonely,

there’s nothing more beautiful

than the birth of a little child.

In a world so hateful,

there’s nothing more uplifting

than the smile of a little child.

In a world so prideful,

there’s nothing more humbling

than the meekness of a little child.

In a world so selfish,

there’s nothing more inspiring

than the compassion of a little child.

In a world so deceiving,

there’s nothing more reliable

than the honesty of a little child.

In a world so cold,

there’s nothing more comforting

than the warm embrace of a little child.

In a world so judgmental,

there’s nothing more reassuring

than the words of a little child.

In a world so immoral,

there’s nothing more relieving

than the innocence of a little child.

In a world so heartless,

there’s nothing more irreplaceable

than the love of a little child.

    Beautiful, instead of just reading the words people. Actually comprehend what each one is saying and picture / feel, that feeling. Because each and everyone one of those is so very true.

    thanks. i know i can personally say that i’ve never big a big fan of/good with little kids, but i have a niece and two nephews, and they’ve made me realize how important children are. they represent everything good in life, before a person is corrupted by everything evil in the world.
