Dont we all want our childhoods back? Except maybe for those who had a forgettable childhood or a childhood that brings back bitter memories. For me, it was a time abundant with love, joy, laughter, friendship, food and snacks, playtime, bed-time stories and spanking.
Now that I'm living a life that is busy with work, meeting with different types of people, compromising on many matters, albeit disapproving of many things, I miss that carefree life I had as a child. I am no longer innocent - honest and truthful, yes, but not innocent. But life has its own cycle and rhythm. We are but living things and like all things living, we are controlled by nature and its creator. And while accepting this fact, I also cannot suppress my longing for my childhood. It is nothing like regret but simply a feeling in the heart - a heart that longs to love and be loved, to understand and be understood.
