From the moment we become aware of the world as children,

we begin to wonder about our place within it.

The questions we ask have been asked before.

Why am I here?

How do I fit into the scheme of things?

What is my destiny?

As children, we tend to think of the future as a clean sheet of paper

upon which we can write our own stories.

In fact, that's why children love stories

and they cannot have enough of them.

The possibilities seem endless and we are energized by the promise of discovery and the sheer pleasure

of living immersed in so much possibility.

But as we grow up and become adults and we are so called educated about our limitations,

our view of the future becomes constricted.

What once filled our imagination now weighs us down with dread and anxiety.

What once felt boundless becomes narrow and dark. There is a way to regain the soaring

joy of unlimited potential.
