Being and Doing

and our inner child

We are all born as beings, simply being and marveling at

the world we are a part of. Then we learn to do, and we separate ourselves from the world around us to transform

it. This would seem to be the essence of Homo Sapiens.

The use of our mind to do, to transform Life, to achieve technologically, scientifically, manually, to be different

from others. Even our exploration efforts on the planet

and off it are based on doing to discover new horizons.

We rarely stop to think why? And, at what price?

Despite all the scientific and technological advances,

we are not happier, our Being was relegated. We sense

that something is missing. That something we call the

inner child and we long for it. Rediscovering our inner

child is to return to Being. It is not a dichotomy between Being and Doing. It is a balance between both aspects of our humanity.
