Life is a lot of things when you are a child.
Happiness is an ice cream cone.
Pain is a bruised knee.
Sadness is when a friend ignores you in school.
Fear is the dark of the night.
Hope is just a fancy word.
Adventure is rescuing a lost puppy.
Love is a mother’s cuddle, a father’s hug.
Loss is a misplaced toy.
Life is also a lot of things when you are an adult.
Happiness is an endless search. Even though you now own an ice-cream shop.
Pain is a bruised heart.
Sadness is when you can’t remember the last time you spoke to a friend
Fear is the dark of your mind.
Hope is everything.
Adventure is watching a rescue mission on television.
Love is family. And money.
Loss is a misplaced soul.
Wow young lady. You have blossomed, really blossomed. Your words hit whee they need to

I liked the idea of rambling once in a blue moon but seeing how ppl who “have a long way to go” write I’m keeping my ramblings to myself. ๐ฎ

See, Nida! You have a beautiful way of saying things. I really like the contrast between a child’s concrete version of these experiences and an adult’s deeply internal ones. Lovely post:0)
