Alright, the inner child idea is something I can identify with, but not totally. I think some part of the person must be "in touch" with their inner child, but another part of the person must be "in touch" with their inner adult. (This "in touch" concept is just beginning to dawn on me.) The child part is the part of the person that still believes that dreams can come true- that one day, you'll be walking down the street and a fairy will fly down towards you. Alright, maybe not exactly that, but I think you get my point. The adult part is the part of the person that has some knowledge of the "real" world- war, death, road-rage, new babies, springtime following winter, rush hour traffic, etc. When those two co-exist perfectly within a person, maybe that's when a person loves fantasy.
