Oh to be ten again...

"Pretend I can do this" "I have this power" "Watch me do this"

Conquering the world was just one imagination away. What it was like to be whoever and whatever you wanted. Why can't it still be like that?

  1. It can still be like that, but people will make fun of you. Or they'll call you senile, that's the one I usually get.

  2. One of my favorite books when I was a kid was "The Little Engine That Could." I think I could probably still quote a good majority of that book.

    I would love to think that some part of that sank in, became a permanent part of who I am.

    I would love to think that anything I can imagine, I can do.

    Of course, that's true, but I don't often think that way.
