Magic and Joy


The other day my daughters, Anjali and Alia, showed me an example of how magical life can be. Each was being dropped off for a sleepover at a friend's house. Both girls, when they saw their friend, were so happy to see them that the joy they felt seemed to just bubble up out of them and spill out into the sidewalk. They almost did a little dance, stomping their feet, waving their arms, and laughing. It was so great to see it. It makes me even more convinced that children know how to live and experience the magic of life much better than adults do.
