With her and the children, we made characters that I could expand on to make a different reality where a life lived by the individual is one that I could afford since there was no restriction in finances. The imaginary nature of the other realms were quite appealing. The character can spend as much money he likes, and go wherever he could go. He/She could change into any clothing He/She wanted. The persons can own any property and they could have natures that were not from the earth we were living in. The ability to create stories mystified me. Her willingness to be help me make anything I wanted, and bring out the ideas that were stuck in my head made me smile more than the sparkling lights in the dew of the rain on a hot summer day.

We liked the conversations beforehand, in which the actions that followed were of the quiet nature. The preparation, although required, put us in a little bit of heat, the fruits that we ate were kind of tasty. My imagination grew stronger. The compassion I had for other humans improved, and the knowledge of their nature, the fragility of the species also seemed to become clear. When I spent time painting, the nature of planet earth, and the restrictions that were there for the human species became less vivid. Humans can’t fly, but with painting by your side, you can give them wings they can use to take to the air, and in this particular moment, I gave the wings to myself.
