Wonders of Being a Child

How I wish I would forever be a child. But I cannot help but accept my growing me. That is what most people say. If I don’t feel like growing old I would have lived with Peter Pan in Neverland where they say children never grow old. But I know things like this does not exist, because we are in a real world. Thus, we grow whether we like it or not.
What’s the first thing that comes into your mind when you see children playing around? I enjoy just seeing those kids roaming around having no worries at all because I remembered those times when I was still a kid like them. It’s nice being a child because a child has no worries. All he does is live his life and enjoy it as much as possible. There are those unlucky ones who were not able to enjoy the benefits of life. We are lucky enough to have our family to support and give us what we need in this chaotic world. There are lots to think about being a child, all those wonderful childhood memories.
Funny, isn’t it? When I remember those times when I was still a kid. There are thousands of memories but only a few can be remembered. I can’t stop giggling and staring at the baby pictures I have because they remind me of how cute and funny I was before. I will surely miss those times when I only got to play and not thinking of any responsibility.
Children don’t carry any burden because they are not prepared yet and that is what I love about it. I guess everybody wants to be worried free but we all have to grow and face responsibilities and realities in life. One good thing about being a kid is that all you do is play around, eat, sleep and of course, learn and discover a lot of things. It feels good to be a child because everyone’s attention is on you. That’s true, especially if you do things that please most of the people. There are still a lot of things that a child pleasing in their own way. Sometimes, the children are even the ones who ease the pain of their love ones by just giving them the warmest hug that only a child can. The happy moments, the wonderful thoughts of being a child will play a big part on our lives because what we were in the past will affect who, we will be in the future.
Childhood could only happen once in a lifetime and perhaps you will miss one half of your life if you were not able to enjoy it as much as every child should. We all go to a different stage in our life after childhood and we cannot go back because the days come and go like muffled and veiled figures sent from our prevalent Father above and if we don’t use these God given gifts, He carry them as silently away. I know no one lives forever and we will all grow up into that somebody we wished of becoming to, but all those sweet and wonderful memories of being a child will forever remain in us.
