India — Mrs. Funnybones author and former Bollywood actor Twinkle Khanna on Saturday expressed her wish to live a carefree life, just like children do. She penned a heartwarming note listing the numerous activities she wants to do.

Taking to Twitter, Twinkle shared a post stating that she would want to run until she’s out of breath, flop on the grass, stare at clouds, chase a squirrel, and walk on hands among other things.

She tweeted, “I wish we lived like children. Run till you are out of breath, flop on the grass, stare at clouds, jump up again, chase a squirrel around every tree in the park, walk on your hands because the world looks different upside down, climb little hills and roll down the other side, do somersaults … just because you can. Mrs Funnybones”

Recently, Twinkle had shared her idea of parenting and advised parents to encourage their children with ideas, honour their strengths but never underline their weaknesses. She posted a black and white photo of herself with her daughter Nitara seated on a bed, cuddling. The caption of her post read, “Our job is not to give our children perfect childhoods. It is to fill their heads with ideas, to honour their strengths and make them aware, but never underline their weaknesses. It involves loving them madly and throwing a few vegetables down their throats.”

And we must do all of this, day after day, without losing sight of everything we are and can be, along with being their mothers. #perfectlyimperfectparenting.” Celebrities including Farah Khan Ali, Tahira Kashyap commented with hearts on her post.
