A L O H A !
When I was little -
" In every real man
a child is hidden
that wants to play. "
Friedrich Nietzsche
" The great man is he
who does not lose
his child's-heart. "
Mencius
" You're never too old to do goofy stuff. "
From the television show Leave it to Beaver,
spoken by the character Ward Cleaver
" So, like a forgotten fire,
a childhood can always
flare up again
within us. "
Gaston Bachelard
I Saw an ANGEL:

" A child's world
is fresh and new
and beautiful,
full of wonder and excitement.
It is our misfortune
that for most of us
that clear-eyed vision,
that true instinct for what is beautiful
and awe-inspiring,
is dimmed and even lost
before we reach adulthood.
If I had influence with the good fairy
who is supposed to preside
over the christening of all children,
I should ask that her gift
to each child in the world
be a sense of wonder so indestructible
that it would last throughout life,
as an unfailing antidote
against the boredom and disenchantment
of later year…the alienation
from the sources of our strength.”
Rachel Carson,
The Sense of Wonder
