CHILDHOOD

How much does our childhood have an impact on how we are, how we think, how we behave, what we cling to and hold dear and what we abhor or view with distaste in adulthood? As I mull over these questions, my musings take me back to my own childhood.

I believe that my childhood holds the answers to a lot of what I am and what I seek to be. I hope I can give my daughter a childhood which she can in turn look back on with her own fair share of happiness, sadness, bitter sweet experiences that shape her life. When I think so I start to feel the depth of this responsibility and then again in characteristic style I let go and say 'cest la vie'. Let each individual be, let us each discover what is in store for us by ourselves without trying to tamper or change outcomes!
