Transcendence

As a boy he had always managed to shrug off the mundanities of the real world.

All this he could leave behind and transcend from the everyday humdrum to go beyond, into a magical domain. This was achieved by allowing his powerful imagination to enter a world of make-belief. A place where he could create fantasies and allow dreams to come alive. He could fly away to places of his own choosing. He could pilot a space cruiser through a star belt or slay a dragon or discover buried treasure on an unmapped island. He could do all these things, there were no restraints or limits set on what he did. He could fly like a bird or swim like a fish. He could lounge in the Serengeti sun with a pride of lions, he could hunt with a pack of foxes in the Arctic tundra or fly great distances with the wedge-tailed eagles in outback Australia or he could dance with the fairies by moonlight in an English forest. He was able to do all these things.

It was always with a great deal of reluctance that he felt the need to return to the real world, where he was the Chief Executive Officer of the International Global Resources Corporation.
