Ignorance Was Bliss
“What I miss the most from my childhood is the innocence. I remember being carefree and not having a worry in the world.”
“I would spend hours outside playing with my friends, and we would just laugh and have fun. Now, as an adult, I have so many responsibilities and worries. Sometimes I wish I could go back to those carefree days.”
“Not worrying about anything. Going to the market with my mom and being gifted a new Matchbox 75 car. And afterward, eating a burger.”
A Sense Of Wonder
“And having so much to learn. There is still a lot to learn, but it used to be so effortless to find cool things and learn about them. Like learning about magnets, electromagnets, and generators. How are you going to top that as an adult?”
“Stuff being completely brand new all the time. You can still seek out novelty, but it’s a lot harder to come across.”
“And, when you find it, it is often reminiscent of other things you have seen before.”
