These are the days I hope you will remember. These are the days I hope all of us will remember. The days of childhood when magic still ruled. Not a magic that made the real world change but a magic that allowed us to believe that donning a ball gown made in China and a fireman outfit purchased from a toy could allow the real world and its rules to drop away and superimpose palaces and fire stations in its place - that thin veneer of imagination supported only by the childhood mind's determination to make it so. When I'm at work and I allow the banal tasks of the job and the pressure of deadlines to eat away at me, I hold on to the memories of you guys sitting at the table snacking in your costumes and I let the make believe pressures of work fade and reveal a world of play and fun and magic. This is what you teach me.
