Being a teacher of young children has given me many special experiences of looking at the world through the eyes of a child. One of my favourites was from a special little girl (she was extra special as she was autistic) who was obsessed with butterflies. She called them "flutterflies" which is actually really more appropriate when you think about it!! I always think of that when I see a butterfly.
Another one recently was from a little boy so excited about his experience. "Water came out of the ground and then I saw a rainbow!" He was talking about a sprinkler!
We are surrounded by ordinary things that can become extraordinary when you slow down and really look. That is something that we can appreciate while life slows during treatment. The trick then is to hang onto that when we recover!
