Jim had five children of his own, and by nature was extremely playful.
He related well to children because he could access that part of
himself. The fascinating thing was that while he functioned as an
astute businessman, he could integrate play into the process.
I now have children of my own, and have come to believe that we are all
born perfect - well, maybe not absolutely perfect, but certainly
completely without evil. As a parent, one of my goals is to see whether
I can raise my children to survive in the world without losing that
childlike innocence, trust, optimism, curiosity, and decency. I am
certain it is possible because Jim was the living embodiment of
it.
