"What It Felt Like" I remember what that felt like, when the world felt infinitely huge and yet every corner of it at any point felt within my reach just whenever I decided to move for it. Distant lands passed the silky haze laying over the distant mountains existing among the frothy clouds hundreds of miles away. A world of wonder that got me thinking that perhaps the things I read were true. Dragons and orcs and wizards existed just beyond the horizon. What it felt like to get fifty dollars for your birthday to do with it what you wanted. To be in the yard drenching sprinkler wet but yet it was actually from a thunderstorm battle among the gods settling a dispute of who should rule. To go to bed with the world within your reach. It's why I give my niece a hundred dollars and gifts on her birthday, so she can tell me tales of her adventures and I can remember what it felt like.
