| Payten and the Silverback at the Zoo |
Today I watched the world through the eyes of a child, and what a glorious world it is. We caught a train, crossed the harbour on a ferry, explored the enclosures at the zoo, saw lions and tigers and bears, then capped the day off with sharks at the aquarium. But what was the highlight for my four-year-old niece? It was walking up the big stairs going into the zoo and eating a red iceblock she had spotted some other kids enjoying earlier in the day.
It was a great lesson for me as a grown up. We
spend so much time doing extravagant things and looking for experiences with a
big wow factor. But sometimes the greatest joy comes from the simplest
things in life. They cost nothing but make our souls smile.
