One of the best chapter in my life is my childhood. I like to remember every details of my childhood memories even though I cannot remember it clearly. Imagining the child version of myself sometimes makes me feel amazed by the fact that that little girl has the same body, heart, mind and soul as me. With the innocence, ingenuousness charming, curiosity, honesty, and any other things that you can only find in a child. That little girl was me. Who have change a lot now.
That little girl was only worry about what toys she would play tomorrow. Her fears were thunder and heavy rain. Her biggest problem was not have a barbie house. Want to make her smile? Just give her a chocolate bar. Yes, just that simple.
That little girl never felt anxious because she thought that adults can protect her. She would ask anything she want to know. She would cry anytime and anywhere she want, even in front of people. She would say what she truly feel, without worrying about what people will think about her.
But, that little girl is growing up now. She finally know that adults can be so selfish, that adults cannot solve all problems, that adults have many things to be worry about, that adults are very good in making things complicated!
That girl figure something out she never knew before. That life, for adults, is full of assumptions, judgments. worry, unfulfilled expectations, and disappointments. And it is very inflexible. And there is one thing that always make her confuse: adults define their happiness in an intricate way.
Now, that little girl, who finally realized that the world is not like what she thought it was, want to go back in time when happiness is just as simple as buying a new barbie doll.
