A Lao village student on his bicycle stopped to check me out.

To play is one of the earliest joys of our humanity.

Play is a period of unencumbered joy, discovering a body designed for movement. Even though we are now older, with adult responsibilities, when we step onto that running trail or playing field in the evening sunset, we remember again that joy, that first rush of blood, the increasing heartbeat and the taste of sweat on our lips.

Remember to play.
