I hope she'll be a fool - that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.

It’s funny how things change.
Things die and are reborn
Or they never come back.
Let us see if you can remember true happiness.
When things were as light as air
And as vivid as cupcakes on a Sunday morning.
Remember who you are.
Forget about the pain of growing up.
Stay 6, 9, 16, 13, 5, 4, 3, even 2 years old.
Stay the way you used to be
Because everything is better in the eyes of a child.
