The Zoo
March 1, 2015
One of the most memorable times in a child’s life is their first trip to the zoo. The mind’s creative genius is unbounded the first time it is able to see a lion, pet a stingray, or hold a butterfly. The dreams that these creatures, these beings, these caged but free animals create can last a lifetime. The beauty seen in nature is truly visible once your eyes are closed, your imagination can truly soar when your head is closest to the ground. The zoo is a place where thoughts run free, and quest for knowledge is at its peak. The zoo is a place where all people, of all ages, should go to learn how to dream again.
