There is a world in which everything is possible, the world of ideas or the world of fantasy, where children have their imaginary friends who are real for them.
But also, at certain times of the year, many adults put their creativity to work to create that world for children here on earth that is palpable for them.
A world where dance, movement, music and colours form or create a fantasy for them that becomes real. As if what they imagined they could see. A world where tall giants of great heights excite and children have to look up to see them.
A world where colourful feathers, smiles and where they can be princesses or princes is a reality, walking along a catwalk where people look at them and admire them.
A space with fantasy beings that amaze the eyes of the little ones of this world, that awaken the creativity in their minds, the imagination. Those beings that we adults say do not exist, but for a child they do.
Perhaps a place of dreams where children learn colours among peacock feathers.
A place where carriages carry illusions and dreams that will make those children happy later in life when they realise them. Carriages that transport them through the universe so that they can admire the infinite possibilities of improvement and fulfilment as human beings.
A world where jellyfish walk the streets, but do no harm and children can touch them without fear.
A world where worms are extraordinary in size and dance to the beat of the music, waving to everyone who passes by.
A world of very big giants, with bright colours that contrast with the plants, which they surpass in size and with the sky, which they want to reach.
Giants with big eyes surrounded by petals so that children are not frightened.
Giants with a big mouth to be able to say beautiful and positive words to the children to encourage them in their lives, to encourage them and to be able to give words of guidance or comfort.
Giants with hands that work for the children, that can give caresses and affection, hands that give a colourful flower to make the children smile if they are sad, hands that know how to give out of love.
Floral giants where children can appreciate the beauty of nature, the colours and the scent of flowers. Flowers that brighten up environments, squares and parks where children can play, run, laugh and see the beauty in life.
Giants with a big nose, so that children know what roses smell like, or a tomato freshly picked from the plant, perhaps the flowers of chance, which will later become citrus fruits, that they can have or recreate memories based on certain smells like a perfume of a loved one.
Giants... giants with a big heart, so that children learn that the true being is inside the heart, that what matters is what one feels and that the heart with big dreams and illusions creates realities.
Great heart, so that the children always let themselves be guided by it, that they do not lose the knowledge that they bring from birth and that with adulthood is lost, that they know that what is in the heart is what is true and that there is always the voice that will guide them in life.
There were many giants in the carnival parade made by the children and dedicated to themselves. Looking at so much work and dedication, I could not help but think how much meaning there was in everything I saw that influences the children.
Thank you all for joining me today, I hope you have a wonderful Sunday. See you soon.
