The World of Children

One of the most pleasurable aspects of visiting a far-off place is when a few moments

are spent just people watching.  More specifically, watching the young children of

that distant land as they go about their business … the business of being young.

Well spent are the moments watching them in their time of imagination, of serious play,
  of dreams and of daring.  A child's world has no political boundary, no geographic

 limits and no cultural taboos.  It is what they want it to be. The young of all lands

 remind us of what Walt Disney once expressed and is often forgotten;

"Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age, dreams are forever."

 Adventurous seafarers they are!!  They launch and sail their craft 

in the pond at Paris' Jardin du Luxembourg.  La joie de la vie!!

"Every child is a different kind of flower and all together,

make this world a beautiful garden."
