The Street is Our Playground

Each one of us has their own childhood memories. Some were bad experiences, some were good and some were fun to remember.

I'm thinking some topics for my article but it seems that I can't think of anything, then I suddenly remembered how we used to play in the streets when we were young.

I'll share with you some memories on that street in the picture.

Back in my childhood days, I was 7 years old when we used to play everyday. Yes! everyday rain or shine. That's our happiness as kids. We don't mind our skin being burned by the heat of the sun. And don't mind our sour smells when our body was covered with sweat.

The street where we played was seldom passed by vehicles. That street has witnessed all our laughters and all the cat fights we had as kids. We played anything under the sun from 1pm upto 5pm. My playmates were my cousins and some were kids living near that street.

We experienced how to mingle and interact with other kids, we learned also about leadership, how to be a leader . Oftentimes, I lead my team mates when we were playing dodge ball or slipper games. We had so much fun, we're always excited for tomorrow.

Our parents just let us to explore and enjoy our childhood. Children are only young once, that's what they used to say and believed.

But nowadays that street was so quite. There's no more laughters can be heard, no more children fighting, no more kids running and playing. It became empty. Some of us have their own families now, having children of our own. Time flies so fast, it seems that it just happened yesterday.

I can say, I have an awesome childhood and enjoyed my childhood because of that empty street. Its so good to look back from your childhood, waking up with no worries, no hesitations, all just happy times. But to get back with reality, life must go on, remembering only memories left from the past, the present to be faced and be prepare for the future.

I hope you enjoyed reading my childhood story.

How was your childhood back then? Please share with me some of your experiences, I would love to hear your story.
