14th November is celebrated as Children’s Day in India every year. Yesterday I received the same SMS from two of my friends which captures the simplicity of our childhood. I share it here today & I am sure it will take you down the memory lane & bring a smile on your face.
” In childhood days:-
I’d put my arms in my shirt and told people I lost my arms
Would restart the video game whenever I knew I was going to lose
Had that one pen with four colors, and tried to push all the buttons at once
Waited behind a door to scare someone, then leaving because they’re taking too long to come out
Faked being asleep, so I could be carried to bed
Used to think that the moon followed our car
Tried to balance the switch between On/ Off
Watching two drops of rain roll down window and pretending it was a race
The only thing i had to take care of was a school bag
Swallowed a fruit seed I was scared to death that a tree was going to grow in my tummy
Closed the fridge extremely slowly to see when the lights went off
Walked into a room. Forgot what you needed, Walked out, and then remember 🙂
Remember when we were kids and couldn’t wait to grow up? And now we think why did we even grow up? Childhood was the best part of my Life ♥! Happy Children’s Day!”
