The Kid in the Bank

I was in the bank this morning. While waiting for my turn, I noticed a boy who was around 3 or 4 years old. He was just walking around, not a care in the world, while his mom was conducting business with one of the tellers. What got my attention was his innocence, how he just moved his hands while strolling around with really no clear direction. He then saw me looking at him and he momentarily stopped and stared back, his eyes full of questions yet full of answers, as well. He turned his back and just climbed onto one of the chairs, continuing his rule over his imaginary kingdom. He never said a word. He kept to his own, unmindful of the eyes on him. In that moment, he was happy.
