Today I feel like the weather; gloomy, stormy, bleak and with more turbulent times on the horizon. In my line of work I have to be constantly happy and enthusiastic, even when feeling as crap as I do right now. It's hard, but at least the little angels cheer me up. Oh to be four again, when all you have to worry about is where the next transformer toy is coming from and if you can have another biscuit or not. It's sad that we all lose the nativity and exuberance that comes with childhood. As soon as we start to care more about what other people think of us than what we think of ourselves, it's over.
Some people mange to retain that joy, I wish I knew how they are so able to just let the world go.
In the words of Chris McCandless, it's society. Society, it's expectations and demands, is what kills the soul. Kills the child. Or maybe just puts it in a cage. I like to be optimistic. Ha.
