The feeling of being a little kid
having no worries
nothing you do is wrong
the fun of the toys
birthday parties
stuffed animals
how could you know that in just a few years
they would be sold, given to other people
even thrown away
But when you lose something you can also gain something
maturity, knowledge, responsibility, respect
starting to read long books
with only words and no pictures
