When I was young (less than 10) I woke up one morning and remembered that the day before I had been bought an Airfix model.
Not just any Airfix model, but a model of the SR.N1 MkI. I built it the night before and when I woke up that following morning I had to run downstairs to see whether it was there as I didn't want it to be a dream.
I still remember the joy of seeing it sat there on the table.
Most things that you get as a kid pass from loved to toybox to loft to bin, but that model stayed with me for years until I think the plastic it was made from just disintegrated from age.
Even now though I remember that first morning and the joy I felt when I realized it was a wish fulfilled. A joy to behold.
There have been many things that have bought me joy since, listening to Tubular Bells for the first time, the birth of my Son, finding my Hunny, but that is the first, the first true unadulterated, heart swelling sense of Joy.

Actually whilst you are laid up with a poorly foot it might be a nice thing to do. Hows Nurse Hunny doing btw? I briefly saw a thing on the TV last night about Victorian nurses and there was a Matron saying to all these young probationers that nursing was a sacred vocation.....I thought of her. xxxxxxxxx Sweetiejar |
