Whimsy

Whimsy is something that far to many adults don't let into their lives, but kids they engage in whimsy all the time. When was the last time you gave yourself the time or latitude to be extravagant, playful, or engage in a fantastic notion. Sounds fun doesn't it!

Look at our children, they can take a empty box and turn it into a rocket ship or a castle. With just a crayon and their imagination they are transported from the living room to the inside of a interstellar spaceship or a knights castle. They can do this because they are willing to engage in whimsy with no fear of how they will be seen by others.

When was the last time you skipped instead of walking, ditched a meeting to go to the beach, or rode on a mermaid horse.

  Whimsy doesn't die in us unless we let it. Don't let it ...
