Seven-year-old philosophy

Posted by Abi on Sunday, April 17, 2011
A short exchange between me and the seven-year-old on the way home from school (translated into English):

Me: Where are your gloves?
Him: In my pocket.
Me: Why aren't you wearing them? Aren't your hands cold?
Him: My hands are a bit cold, but such is life.

I laughed for a good minute.

    Já auðvitað.

    Ég: Hvar eru vettlingarnir þínir?
    Hann: Í vasanum mínum.
    Ég: Af hverju ertu ekki í þeim? Ert þér ekki kalt í puttunum?
    Hann: Mér er svolítið kalt í puttunum, en svona er lífið.

    Það er kannski vitlaust að tala um að vera "í" vettlingum en, sem hann segir, svona er lífið.
