Don't EVER go grey.. Keep your Happy.
There is a difference between being "child-like" and having a happy inner disposition, and a compassionate view of life.
It's a person who is in-touch with their inner-child, where Life and Creativity springs from. We forget to 'play.'
Where possible, and when appropriate, it is Good to be a person who up-lifts others-- especially when the others around you are feeling down.
(A LOT of people 'need' that right now-- things are just sooo heavy and serious in this world.)
Child-like is different than being childish.
Important to know the difference.
Some people use that word as a derogatory term, and as an opportunity to wound another person's spirit.
Did you ever watch this 1960 movie, called Pollyanna?

We need more "Sparklers" in this world, to help Cheer (and Heal) the Human Spirit.
