When I was younger, I remember looking out to see a very different world to the one that stares back at me now. When I was a child, I did not know what things were, how they worked or anything else for that matter. I was clueless yet I knew. Its ironic to think that despite having no knowledge, it was the time I saw things the clearest. I was naked without understanding, ideas, beliefs, memories, expectations or anything else that could distract me. I barely even had an idea of self. All I was aware of was the vastness of this world that engulfed all my senses. Everything was more alive. Colors brighter, sounds louder and aromas richer. I truly walked along the side of the gods.
