Once Upon a Time in the West

Once upon a time there was a little boy who could do anything, achieve anything and believed that anything was possible.

It doesn't matter that he was a boy, could of been a girl or a combination of both.

What happened to that boy? Where did he go?
Was he subsumed by the daily inanities of life?

In the back of the little boy's mind was a dream, a vision of how he wanted things to be that gradually unfolded.

With hindsight that little boy saw that all his actions in time were allied towards one basic form, they all had a similar theme to them.

The little boy grew into a man, but inside he was still the same boy looking up at giants beating him with belts. He was still the little boy fighting back against bullies and trying to not become a bully himself.

In his mind's eye that little boy believed that there must be something more to all this than what most people believe.

In his mind's eye that boy still retains a vision of what he wants and what he wants to give to the world and even though he sometimes finds it very difficult to maintain that vision in the face of adversity in many forms, it's still there, bright spark as ever.

Is the little boy or girl inside of you still calling out for you to follow your true purpose?
