When humankind was young, we lived in a garden paradise...I believe that to be literally true; it is also experientially true for the fortunate among us. When we were children, we lived in a protected sanctuary, under the loving care of our parents. The world was new to our experience, and filled with wonder and mystery. The light had a special radiance...the flowers were treasures of color and scent...butterfly was a small miracle. And then they grew up.
