  1. thanks for that. authentic child’s eye view of the importance of ideal heroes to transform into , totally relate. you can go places and experience things not otherwise possible. i used to wear a towel stuffed into the back of my collar, my superman cape, i was him. faster than a speeding bullet. i never could exactly understand why i couldn’t take off and fly. but i didn’t dwell on it. 🙂 thanks that was great, will share.
