I remember when I was a young child and life seemed like a magical place. You could just worry about your favorite cartoon characters and what cereal you were going to eat the next day. As an adult, that innocence dies as responsibility sets in. Welcome to reality.

This young boy had a dose of reality in the form of his rocket sadly launching, even after his intense attempt to set that rocket far into the sky. I like to imagine the rocket as hopes and dreams and the kid's sad attempt to step on it as reality.

I hope this young boy doesn't let this one rocket fail dim his spark, but the fact that it's online and people are laughing at him might come to haunt in later in life.
