The Gift of Adventure

One of the great joys of life is the moment when you know, with perfect clarity, that the rules are all made up - especially the rules of adulthood.

off on another adventure of a lifetime & hoping he won't forget halfway through this time

Adventure of a Lifetime
- Brian Andreas





Of course, after centuries spent in refinement, some of the rules work beautifully. A lot don't. Figuring out which is which can be one long frustration or an adventure. In fact, every once in awhile, I wonder if it's the adventure - starting every day all over again.

A lot of adults follow rules that make them appear very serious or sophisticated - both of which are fun in small doses and neither of which are fun at ALL as a way to live. Still, they have their fans who are really good at waking up to start looking for disasters and injuries and bad stuff in general and then marshalling all their resources to keep the bad away.

Aow.

Today, as we give you this little animation to celebrate the beginning of Storypeople Kids, it seems much better to start the day with the excitement of a child, the child who hasn't learned to believe that he or she has to expect a certain outcome.

Maybe that would get boring, though.

I don't think so, do you?
