Childhood- Everything was so simple. Or is that just perspective?
Time is fleeting and it’s having its way w/ us. It drags on the beginning of our lives and goes by too fast down the road. Childhood and youth were really the best of times. Or do they seem that way b/c we know we’ll never get them back; that it’s just a distant fading memory. I guess that grass is always greener on the other side. We want what we don't have or what we we're not. There are days in my childhood, specific moments that I can recall so well. How flushed my face felt when someone told my the boy I liked thst I had a crush on him.
Everything was so simple. Or is that just perspective? At the time, of course, things didn’t seem easy or simple in the in the least. It’s amazing how when you’re a child your world is so small which causes everything that happens to seem so big, And as I sit here pondering and reflecting, what does it leave me with? What do I do? Where do I go from here? I understand that I can’t go back. But where do I go from here?
Why did I want to grow up so fast? What did I think I was missing out at the time? Bills? responsibilities? decisions and heartaches? Those are the best things to miss out on, but I didn’t know that I wanted to grow up so fast. I’m mad at myself for wasting so much time. It becomes more and more valuable as days role on. Wasted days have turned into years and what do I have to show for it, except sorry for myself? Which I will stop doing, cause I know that it’s not that way anymore.
