Believe like a child

Remember being a kid and how easy it was to believe? As we grow older we develop filters and "depth" to try and catch anything being thrown our way which is deceitful or not true. And isn't it funny that even as adults we are still prone to deceit and lies, no matter how smart we think we have become? We've learned very little other than destroy our child like creativity and intuition, replacing it with intellectual jargon which produces nothing original. 


Here's the exercise.  You are to behave like kids, (no kiddie mimics please),a group of actors will create a universe and play act a story and go with it....we are in mars, our spaceship broke down, my puppy is dying and we have to get back to earth to save him and we can't find the tool...the more outrageous, the better.  DO NOT STOP TO THINK - go with it.  If you have trouble, spend some time in a park where children play and watch how these games develop. Curious enough, even if not spoken, they determine rules of winning.
