Love this! If we can hold onto that childhood magic of enjoying the simple things, we are so blessed! As we age, life becomes more complicated, but the universe remains full of marvelous things.
Leunig has always been a thought provoking cartoonist, and this one is exceptional… thank you Kate for sharing…. and coincidently, here I am listening to Leonard Cohen’s “The Butcher”

He always says it so well.

Ah, to spend even five minutes free of the burdens we (adults) have created.
It also means doing without the things that make adulthood special, like Mozart, an exquisite vintage, a quiet afternoon in an art gallery….
The perks exact an unimaginable price, or the angst offers unfathomable rewards. Either way…
“Welcome to the real world, kid. Tremble…and enjoy! the ride”

Nurturing that childlike wonderment found in all things goes a long way to understanding less and less, but feeling and being more and more.
