It is wonderful to be a child. Grown-ups somehow forget how to dream.
My boys found this tree-stump in my in-law's back garden. They are busy building and needed to remove this tree. Next thing I knew, I had to accompany my hunter-sons who "discovered" a dead elephant in the backyard. They proudly showed me its trunk and its amazingly long hair. I had to touch its skin, feeling how rough it is. This elephant apparently had been dead for a while, but we had to be careful as it might just be pretending that it is dead. It might get a fright, jump up and bite you with its loooooong teeth.
It took all of 5 minutes. But dreaming helped me out of a hard day's work and into a place where I could enjoy life with my sons.
Take some time to dream.
