What does it mean to be a kid at heart?

Kids play and act like everything is guaranteed to be alright. They hold onto items worth nothing and make it feel like they’re worth everything. Kids smile and cry. They make friends quickly. They fight, forgive, forget, and fight again. They are impatient.

I think most of these qualities are lost for a good reason. But we can smile more and live for the moment when appropriate. We can read books and relive the fun, ignoring the not-fun. We can play.

Have I shared that there will be a new HoMM game next year? I’ll block some time on my calendar to feel like a 15-year-old when it goes live 🙂

  1. One thing I really love about getting older is that I really enjoy re-reading books. With memory diminishing somewhat, they all feel like first time reads and even bits that I recognise as having been read before often acquire an altogether new meaning. I savour the prose more too.
