Welcome to my blog. I decided to call it Childhood: The Sequel because that's how I view my "adult" life. (I put it in parentheses because sometimes I hardly consider myself an adult.) Thus far, though I've grown in maturity, life experience and knowledge, I have striven to cultivate that sense of wonder so common and natural to children. Too often, we grow up and become cynical of the world around us, and find it difficult to remember a time when we looked at the world and saw beauty and mystery and wonder.
When I was younger, I remember becoming obsessed with fairy tales. I loved the outlandishness, the thought of there being another world out there, full of adventure and beauty and danger. And, to a certain extent, the idea still fascinates me. It seems to fascinate a number of other people as well, what with all the fantasy movies and novels now so common. So yeah, that's pretty much all I've got to say so far. Happy reading!
