what children know and we forgot

Jeanette Winterson wisely writes that the only things she really regrets, 
were not errors of judgement but failures of feeling.

Henry James would agree. 
And in the midst of this hot, steamy Brussels summer,
I can't help but think about his imperative.


The answer should always be to feel more,
never less.


And what better place to remind us all of this forgotten way of life, 
than next to a children's bookshop?
