Life: reality or make-believe

Continuation

I don’t believe the desire for The Red Ball will ever go away. Have you ever experienced something like that; where you want something so bad, you can not stop thinking about it. I can remember, as a kid, wanting a certain toy or game and begging my folks to buy it for me. Pretty much every time they wouldn’t.

Then I heard this saying, if you can wait twenty-four hours (or maybe it was a week) and you still want it just as bad, then you should get it.

I don’t know how reliable that thought process is. I suppose it’s meant for little kids with the attention span of a goldfish (goldfish have, like, a two-second attention span) and forget about something after they’ve turned their eyes on something else.

What has been something you’ve wanted since you were a kid. For me it was the Lego Castle. That set looked amazing! The problem came with the price. I can’t remember how much it cost, but it was always too much. I never got it for Christmas. (I looked and I don’t think they make it anymore)

Another bench mark to go along with the Castle is this Red Ball…

You’ll be with me forever!
