No matter how we play it is freeing to let go even if it is wild and crazy – especially if it is wild and crazy! That means one truly has let go of inhibitions. 

Even though I am now a grandmother of two,  wrinkled, scared and all, I’m still plenty agile enough to climb a tree and haven’t lost a playful spirit. There is plenty of life left in me and I am so grateful for that.

What caused me to climb a tree? I took one of my most loyal reader’s suggestions after she read my recent post about my summer’s writers nest and how it may inspire me to one day write something profound. She said “You may even start climbing that tree to go out on a limb!” And so I did and I felt free as a bird. We are all at liberty to create any kind of fun we want for ourselves.
