Why is this blog named as "Peter and the Outsider"?

First, it's the first thing that actually popped up in my mind :)

Second, I love Peter Pan. To be precise, I want to be like Peter Pan. In other words, I just like the idea of not growing up. Imagine if the world is filled with 95% of innocent, naive children and only 5% of adults, who would be too busy taking care of the children that they have no spare time to plan out the evil that would destroy our fragile morality, like they are doing now. By then the world would be full of glittering rainbows, fluffy bunny-shaped clouds, multi-colored balloons, shimmering sunbeams, flawless expansive blue skies, cute little grasshoppers hopping on the prairies, heart-shaped chocolate lollies, blossoming pink daisy-buds, and vivacious laughters which endlessly linger still in the sweet-smelling air. Happy, happy, happy. But then again, reality comes first, doesn't it? As time moves on, there's no way to stop the changing of our simple little minds into something atrocious, a mechanism so complex and unpredictable that every wicked thing is made possible by it. Ah, the false glory of being an adult...


Last but not least, I added the word "Outsider" because it... well, rhymed :s. Plus, I believe that sometimes we can't help but feel like a little bit of an outsider in our own lives: Indulgently sulking only on the outside, not knowing or wanting to know what's really going on in the inside.
