Imagine the ringmaster introducing, "Galaxy Girl as she performs acrobatics, handstands and aerial gymnastics on top of a flexible pole 120 feet above the ground. Yes ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, Galaxy Girl will take your breath away as she perfectly executes unthinkable stunts on her sway pole with no net, harness or safety apparatus."
The innocence of a child amazes me sometimes. It reminds me of how blissfully unaware a person can be of anything else. As adults we so often have a myriad of things going on in our minds that are more distracting than the event in front of us, but a child can look up and watch a "Galaxy Girl" sway in the air and just enjoy the moment.
As we grow older, I think we yearn more and more for those blissful moments, as brief as they might be. Maybe all we have to do is watch a child.
