O' that I could reply in the affirmative. Recently a friend of mine's son graduated high school. I wrote the following on his card, he likely skipped it and grabbed the cash, but I'll put it here for you too: "They say that youth is wasted on the young. Prove them wrong."
This thread is making me laugh so hard I don't know what to do. I think we should have ventilation threads every now and then where everybody gets their childish out and returns to stern-faced discourse.
Being childish is awesome! The other day I was at Dave and Busters, and I saw this kid win a teddy bear from a claw machine. He fell on the floor laughing and (lovingly) bragged to his brother about how much better he was at the claw machine. It was such a great expression of joy, and my wife and I laughed because of the experience. He made our day because of his childishness. I wish I could be more like him. Also this: “Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I answer all my children’s letters — sometimes very hastily — but this one I lingered over. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, “Dear Jim: I loved your card.” Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.” That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it.” Maurice SendakThis thread is making me laugh so hard I don't know what to do.
