P3D A kid's view?

["Andrea Blair" <asblair@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, gang! I got behind in things (again), but as I was skimming the 
digest, the following statement caught my eye and I couldn't resist the 
temptation to respond! I'm in the middle of this thread, so I hope what 
I write makes sense!

The original point of the posting that started this (now absurd and
growing moreso) thread was I don't understand why some people (like,
presumably, us) got turned on to 3D and are active participants, while
most others to whom we show our presumably stunning 3D work, can't be
bothered.  Although the more I think about it, the more I believe it is 
simply "adult inertia".  Kids are MUCH more likely to want to try it 
themselves than your average adult.<<<

This may explain why I fell in love with 3-D so fast and hard. I'm never 
growing up, plain and simple! (i.e., I will always remain a kid at heart 
no matter how many years the body may accumulate.) Kids find anything 
different interesting, which develops into hobbies, or possibly 
professions later in life. Some of us retain that fascination. Some fall 
in love with the TV remote or just settle for a comfortable existence. 
That's life. I notice a difference, too, when I show my work to 
different people. I usually find the people who really enjoy the images 
are involved in the Arts (music, painting, etc.) in one way or another 
themselves. The "kid mentality" seems to be comprised of interest, 
intrigue, curiosity, determination, fascination, perseverance, 
simplicity, enjoyment, openmindedness, and being carefree. Sometimes 
some of those things seem to fade as we grow older, which may help to 
determine the activities we choose later in life over those we did as 
kids. Make sense?

Philosophically yours,
