Even my childhood is gladder.
Not long ago, I re-lived those days as a child when the swing seemed to give me wings. The world was a cheery, propitious place because if I could fly then I could achieve so much more. I was a kid who believed in myself :)
Those were truly happy times. And you'd suppose if those positive experiences left no unfinished business, then they are as good as anyone would have them. Except they could get better.
And, truth be told, even I didn't realize, until I got to swing along with you :) Remember the lady with the child in her arms was laughing at us because we appeared to be 5-year-olds all over again, albeit larger than life. We couldn't stop grinning from ear to ear, although that description is perhaps more accurate of me than you. And then those smiliar occurences of yesteryears were jolted from memory and refreshed; enhanced even.
It's mind-boggling how when you meet someone you get along with, you wonder where he's been all this while. And you couldn't believe how you survived so long without this kind of breathtaking bliss in your life. You don't only wish to share with him all that the future holds, you're convinced how much more enjoyable past endeavours would have been with him around.
My dearest, there's something about you that makes the ordinary resplendent.
