Grabbing the Reins

Irrelai, finished aiding in the restoration following the Anrufe attack on Duppin, stands straight up as she feels the pulse from the embodiments of Creation and Destruction. A small vine reaches up and wraps itself around her fingers, as if trying to comfort her as her mind wanders to Iroku and the Outerverse. "Come home soon." She whispers into the air, before closing her eyes and crouching before the vine in a rare moment of emotional weakness.
Seeing the world through a child's eyes is truly a unique experience. It helps you to retrieve that sense of awe, magic and wonder that you lost as you lost your innocence. Tell me, when was the last time that you thought of those childhood dreams? You know, the ones that you used to spend all your time wondering and fantasizing about? Have you forgotten them so easily? Have you forgotten what it felt like to see something for the first time, to see the magic in the mundane? Everyone says you should take the time to 'Stop and smell the roses'. But you should also take the time to look for the fairies, embrace the wind and enjoy the rain. Just once today, stop for a moment and look into that little piece of nature you pass everyday. Perhaps you may see something you did not notice before.
