Insouciance. Remember when it was so easy to be nonchalant? These days, we are all so flustered by the turbulent bustle of day-to-day living, that we often forget that it is okay to be INSOUCIANT for a few minutes. Those short moments should be spent tapping into our boundless imaginations and dreaming of superheroes, magic, monsters, laser beams, aliens, and epic battles.
