I want to stay here forever, said this little lass this morning as we got to the end of our second VIA session with the kids from Heartfriends. My basketball guys had just done a stellar job in keeping a bunch of primary school children occupied in the physical sense, sort of teaching them the skills of the game, but mainly just getting them running around mindlessly and having great fun.
What is it about children and running? Watching their obvious exhilaration when they are chasing the ball, each other, or outsize basketball players twice as big as they are, is a reminder of kids' capacity for simple, sheer joy, coming into being out of nowhere.
