What you were born with as a baby quickly becomes shaped by the people and events around you.
Those blemishes, scratches, scars and weathering continue to appear well into adulthood.
Over time, the vitality of who you were which included your dreams and expanded awareness of the world around you, becomes dull and lifeless as the stresses of your day-to-day existence wear on.
Laying on the cool green grass of Colorado, I’d look up in the sky and watch the animals, angels, and faces floating above me in the fluffy white clouds overhead.
