Trip Down Memory Lane
Sarah Bianca V. Sarita
How would you feel if you're a young child again? No pile of homework, problem, and heartache. Everything just
seems bright and perfect. If given a chance, I would go back to my childhood years.
I believe childhood is the best period of life. It is the era of innocence. It is more on happiness instead of sorrow. Do
you still remember when there was always a smile on our faces as the wind brushed through our hair? Or the different kinds
of pain when we fell on our bicycles? The sweet agony, indeed. At least we learned to continue moving forward. Likewise,
the feeling of victory when we finally reached the largest fruit after several attempts of climbing the mango tree. Those
were the days when simplicity brings so much contentment.
I am certain that childhood is the greatest stage of our life because we used to run and play like there's no tomorrow.
Countless street games surely marked our hearts, not just our knees and elbows. The warmth of the sun could not stop us
from beating our opponents, especially if it was a heated match. But our excitement grew more when raindrops started
to wet the grass. It meant something else; an unexplainable feeling. We just enjoyed every moment of our life. Being a
child also means forgiving and forgetting. We might have fights but we tend to forgive and forget easily.
Without a doubt, childhood will always be the best; so much glee and serenity.
