A Wish, A Dream, A vision???

My Wish, if I should be so fortunate. I would go back in time to my childhood. To simply sit down and hold a conversation with myself. I have wonderful memories of my childhood. A strong loving family and parents that loved us all completely! And yet, THAT Carla would be the one I would love to talk to...even if she were shy as a bird.
And we would reach out and grab fruit from the trees. Filling our belly, knowing Mom would be upset because we had no appetite for our dinner.

life is a blur...one day you're 10 and riding your bike, the next moment you're 63 and thinking back of when you were 10 and riding your bike

@booboo Matters little how we did it, How we survived. What matters are the memories we planted in our hearts. AND I am glad I have held tight to my childhood memories.
I miss it all. Even crying over my Cat who was hit by a car. Her name was Cleo. My 1st loss. I was only seven.

We survived. We grew up. We pictured ourselves becoming like our parents. Learning and loving each passing day.
