Do we really wanna go back to our Childhood....

I have heard almost everyone saying that childhood days were the best and some of us actually wanting to go back and live the childhood again!!!!! 

Today while talking to a child, I realized that how badly children wanna grow up. She just asked me, "Di, how much did your cell cost?" and said, "You know what, when I'll grow up, I'll buy the best cell of the latest technology of my CHOICE!!!!". She emphasized on the word CHOICE. Being a child, how much we love the thought of freedom when we grow up, how much we hate being scolded by parents with no fault of ours. How we plan our wish list of buying things when we start earning!!!! so we don't have to get our smallest demands getting scrutinized by our parents like having an ice-cream or even a packet of chips. 

But when we grow up, we just kill the child in us. We lock our "when we grow up" wish list and throw away the key. For today, whatever you do, just think was it possible to do the same in your childhood. Notice the smallest activities we do in your daily life like waking up late, having an ice-cream, spending money without asking anyone, sleeping late, "watching T.V", surfing net, going for a movie, hanging out with friends, eating what you want..... the list is endless. Enjoy every such moment.  

Life is beautiful at all stages, not just in childhood :).

  2. not that i m not content n happy with my present but still if given an option, i guess almost all the "lucky ppl" like me wud love to go back to chilhood days who had lotsa lotsa frnds all around..

    say whatever but growing up does make u meaner n busier.. even when in college, i wud always insist that one can maintain the charms of all relationships,esp friendship if one wishes.. but now i realise that at times it does happen that u r not given an option like this :(

    if not childhood dayz, i want at least that everyone get more than 24 hours n it be made compulsory that u have to spend those xtra hours with ur frnds n family only.. no other option :)
    kinna kewwwwwwwl ho jayega sab ;;)

  3. Rather than being child again, I wish to keep the child in me alive with all this freedom of adulthood. I actively do behave as one many a times, People mock me to be childish, and I just smile at them to be only grown up's ;)
