Have you ever noticed that when asked, most people say that the best days of their life were the days of childhood, at the most until they were in university, just before they entered the metaphoric jungle of life.
There may be a thousand reasons to feeling your childhood as the best period of your life, but one thing cannot be ignored. And that is that as a child, you were never confronted with the reality of your life, or let’s say the reality of life as a child was never confronting. How about now? How do you feel about the life now?
There is one more thing about that period of life. As a child most of us went to schools, we may be in different grades yet when we appeared for a test, all the students of the same class had to answer same questions. Everybody appearing for a particular examination is asked the same questions. And the answers you were expected to produce were also same. So even if everybody responded differently in the examinations, yet all had the same syllabus and same preparation to do.
Unfortunately just as that wonderful dream called childhood faded, we were suddenly exposed to a world, whose reality although not scary, but still was at least unexpected. It did not take long after passing out the academic university that you discovered the real name of the University of Life – The University of Hardships and Knockdowns. And the worse was that in the University of Life, you had to appear for an examination daily, in fact many times a day. What was worse was the fact that everyone who entered this university had a different question paper to answer. There was no way you could prepare in advance by looking at how others dealt with their life, after all you soon discovered that yours was different than everybody else around. |
