Fake it until you make it.
This was a quote I once heard from a Down Syndrome child on a plane to Georgia.
When her caretaker took a step to the bathroom, she whispered in my ear, "I'm heading to see the Wiggles in Australia."
Confused, I whispered, "Today?"
She looked me dead in both eyes and breathed, "Yes, today. No one knows we are really on the way to Australia."
I smiled. Her caretaker sat down.
