Within every child who dares to dream, there lives an angel not bound by wings, but by wonder. This angel does not descend from heavens above — it rises from the infinite below: the wild roots of imagination, the tangled threads of thought no adult can neatly tie. While the world teaches limits, the child sees patterns in the stars, voices in the trees, and questions no map dares to answer. In their sleep, they do not run from the unknown — they dance with it, hand in hand. For them, the universe is not a void to be solved, but a story to be felt. The angel within is not there to protect them from reality — it is there to remind them that reality was once made from dreams. And if we are to survive what we’ve forgotten, we must listen to those still brave enough to dream without apology, to color without lines, to speak to shadows and call them friends. These children do not fear the dark — they give it meaning. And through them, we remember what it means to create not just a better world, but a more magical one.
