Are we kids at heart?

Recommended Posts

Or is it a soft spot only for aviation? 

Would you jump?

Or walk past?

For me, I know the same thing that makes me still interested in games (and aviation as well, which is just a type of game to me) Would definitely make me jump! 

But how many of us would?

Is the child still in there?

We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

Well, it is commonly said that the difference between a kid and an adult is...the price of the toy.

Everyone who knows me in real life would laugh and know without having to think about it that I would definitely hopscotch if I saw that. 😋

 

And did you notice how many big manly city workers couldn't resist? Hmmmmmm........

 

I guess I will be playing games (including Flight Sims) for life.

My wife certainly thinks so, and I'm 50+ although my head says I'm 21.

The older you get the less the spirit and body match up.

No hop scotch for me anymore.  I have to lean against a wall to put on my pants.

The tires are worn.  The shocks are shot.  The steering is wobbly.  But the engine still runs fine.
