And so you had dreams, all kids want to get to be an adult and do all the cool stuff that adults got to do, and so you did... But again, do kids ever have the baggage of guilt and shame that most adults carry for most of what they do? Children view this world through very different lenses, and I can say we would be very much fortunate among men and women, if we could see the world through their innocence. But, responsibilty, as adults, means that we don't get to view it that way, or as much as we want to. There is no greater ideal or dream than that of innocence.
