Do you think that Wendy ever regretted leaving Neverland? She undoubtedly missed Peter and the Lost Boys. Maybe she even missed Captain Hook; at least he wore his black heart on his sleeve as a warning. Things in Neverland were simple, everything was black and white. The good things were beautiful and light and drenched in the glow of pixie dust and the bad things were ugly and twisted and easy to triumph over. Wendy had to have realized that after she left.
Do you think she made the right choice? Growing up is a natural part of life, of course, but if you could stay young and worry free forever, why wouldn’t you? She could have stayed in Neverland and had a multitude of adventures to take up each passing hour, never growing bored or tired or old. There would be no heartbreak, no responsibilities, no wrinkles and grey hair, only a world bathed in innocence and splendor.
Do you think she ever stood on her windowsill with her toes hanging over the edge and nightgown billowing in the wind, staring out and searching for that bright star in the distance where she had found home, unsure of whether jumping would lead to flying or falling? Do you think, at that point, she cared one way or another?
