Reflection

I guess in every aspect of life, we would've made some mistakes here and there. That's fine, it's part of growing up, it's part of life. Perhaps some mistakes we make may seem terribly stupid, but we learn from it. We mature, and that's how the problems in life, and how we handle them, mould us into the various type of people we are.

Perhaps writing this piece with a hope to jog my memory might seem a little too late, however I believe that as long as I try, it would be fine. Mayhap this piece would be yet another boring piece of story, a parcel of my mind no one would be interested in.

I remember those days where we roam around, free of all troubles. Well not exactly, our only troubles were choosing what colours to use for our painting, and whether we should paint the Sun at the corner of the paper as per usual. The reasons we cried for - scraping our knees, or our parents going for an overseas trip without you. 

All these are kept in the form of pictures and fond memories, which will accompany us in our quest of life. When we were young, we always clamber up to our parent's laps and tell them about our dreams, and that we couldn't wait to grow up. They would simply laugh and shake their heads saying "Maybe you should enjoy your childhood for now? Think about the future only when it dawn upon you." We would simply pout and climb away grumpily, grabbing our toys and playing with them, forgetting about the issue quickly. 

The days we had when we were young are probably the most precious ones as we do the most innocent of things. For example, we have no qualms in helping people who needed help. But now, as were grow up, would we lend a helping hand to those that needs it? Are we willing to lay aside our "pride" to help others in need?

Perhaps not.
