The Playground

Where do our dreams begin to take shape? Perhaps they start while we're playing, free to run and romp about. Energy & Imagination. Adrenaline. Discovery. There's a school campus near the back of my house, and as lunch time approaches, the laughter, joy & sounds of the kids on the playground begin to take flight and fill the entire neighborhood. It makes for a beautiful background - kids at play. This moment of fun & discovery does not have to come exclusively in childhood. Right? It can find you at any stage of life, as long as we're open to new experiences, & embracing the playful sounds & emotions that come with it. That art of living makes little distinction between work and play, vocation and avocation, labor & leisure, mind & body. Wouldn't it be grand if you could hardly tell which is which? Go find your playground, where work & play are woven together as one.
