It is June of 1994 and Jonathan is 14 (and in a show called Alice in Wonderland).
In this time of life
by Jonathan Kraft
Don’t think of things that make you weary
And forget about a midnight dreary
Instead think of dreams of your wonderland
And the magical spirit it gives
Because when the spirit knows it’s true dreams
It then truly lives.
You must live your life in a wonderland
Living where you do
Even though sometimes your wonderland
Makes you feel like a fool.
You must strive to become in this world
Everything that you can be
And you must show the world
The wonderland that you see.
Put the dreams of your heart
Out into the open
You’ll feel like a kid again
You’ll feel like jump-ropin’.
Show the magic of wonderland to the world
Show them what you feel
And then you’ll see your wonderland
Will have become real
I admire your ongoing optimistic spirit even though times are not always easy. It’s a big part of why it’s always such a joy to be with you! Your spirit is infectious!!
Thank-you for your wonderful compliment. It is very nice to receive today!
