Outline of the Philosophical Concept of the Child and the “Child in us”
Journal Title: Theology and Philosophy of Education - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
In this article, an outline of the philosophical concept of the child is presented, based on the central idea that our childhood and the child we were is not a thing of the past, but is always present within us, at any age. This “Child in us” is not only our longing for love but is the very love that secretly persists within us. In our lives, we long for this love; we are constantly searching for that ancient “child within us”, mostly without knowing that we are always that child – love.
