"So much of the healing of our world begins in healing
the inner child who rarely, if ever, got to come out and play."
Vince Gowman
Discover a way to play, to release the self from rigid boundaries. Step outside of established personas, breaking free of restraints. Create a caper where frolic and play abounds. Become so entertained that rapture pushes responsibility away. Feel the joy of simple fun whether swinging on a swing or aimlessly beating a drum.
Revert to simplicity, casting all heaviness to the side. Just in the present moment, run barefoot through the grass or dance in the rain. Walk aimlessly with sunshine beating down upon the face while enjoying a juicy treat. Be daring and walk through the neighbor's sprinkler, laughing all of the way.
Jump into the car and turn off the air conditioning. Open the windows and crank up the music, singing to the heart's content. Play triggers not only laughter, but inspiration as well. The imagination stimulates new thought and relaxes any sense of sternness. It moves us into a different reality with new thoughts of mastery.
