As twenty days are now.

when all you need to do to lose weight is take a bath.

Childhood is a short season.

We could never have loved the earth so well
if we had had no childhood in it.

Old age lives minutes slowly, hours quickly;
childhood chews hours and swallows minutes.

Childhood is not preparation for life. It is life.

There is a garden in every childhood. Maybe when you see these pictures, one of them would have brought back the memory to your young age.

Everyone of us have our own memories. Some are beautiful and some are really ugly. But everyone of us should have at least one memory that will stick very strongly with us and shape our personality. I have my own too. I still remember my happy childhood when I was living with my adopted parents in my village in Thailand. The village was in the hill sides, surrounded by trees and river stream. The place had no electricity nor pipe water facility.

In the morning the air would be thick full of mist. I still remember how I hated to take bath in the river since the water was so cold it turns your lips bluish. So I would only take my bath around almost noon when the sun shined bright and the air began to turn warmer.

I still remember the time when my friends and I went to butterfly netting. I still could see it clear the grass, the wind of the day, the sunshine and the butterflies. They are so colorful! We caught around 10 of them and went home. In the house, we let them fly off from the container we put them in. When they flew out, i could see the way the escape and fly away. It was so beautiful. Thinking back about what happened, that moment of life taught me how much valuable freedom is to living creatures.

God has given all of His creations freedom and joy, so I can't just simply take it away from them for the sake of my own happiness.

Share with us about your beautiful memory too. It could just be a one line sharing.
Take care!:)
