how do you know you are playing?

Playfulness contains spontaneity, a sense of adventure, a glimpse of something new or hopeful just
around the corner and an air of suspense.
 It employs our senses and calls us to examine a tree, smell a dog or watch a small child stack
packages at the grocery store.  We capture moments, snapshots and "sights" for our sore and
weary eyesight of worldly woes and cares.  We are transported.
