There's a carousel in the valley if you choose to believe in it. Just over the hill, there's a peaceful lake, and ahead lies an endless apple orchard, all waiting if you choose to believe. A child swings on a tire swing, and there’s a baseball field of dreams where boys become legends, but only if you believe. The scents of the seasons fill your senses, even from afar, but if you close your eyes and choose to believe, anything is possible.
There’s also an abandoned amusement park where the vines of time have taken hold, and once-brilliant colors have succumbed to rust. The laughter and screams of joy have fallen silent, but if you choose to believe, the music will resume, and the lights will shine as games of chance, filled with weathered stuffed animals, come alive. A child pleads with her dad to win her the giant bear.
Life is a series of moments where everything you dream of is happiness and possible if you choose to believe.
