This reminds me of a painting that I finished just today! ;)
The child's kingdom (as I've heard it called) is attainable at any age. With the past long gone, and the future only imaginary, all that is left is that kingdom, always happening now. If we can ignore the fluttering thoughts of past and future, we are rewarded with a nice Present.
Thanks for sharing the story, and the pics remind me that I need to get up and see the land of the giants one of these days.
