Childlike

To love as a child
is not immature.

To laugh as a child
Is not immature.

To hope as a child
Is not immature.

To believe as a child
Is not immature

To have faith as a child
Is not immature.

To grin like a child
Is not immature

To belly laugh as a child
Is not immature.

To forgive as a child
Is not immature

To play as a child
Is not immature

Though it can be at times
The love, the laughter, the hope, the belief, the faith, the grin, the belly laugh, the forgiveness, and the playfulness at times can be expressed immaturely and at times hurtfully, yet these child like qualities are really quite beautful in their expression of joy and innocense. These traits do not make one immature. But when they are, we correct and usually not with the belt.
