when i was small i used to believe in existence of ghosts. once when we friends where playing we saw a bone lying at corner of our ground we went and checked it out. It was kind of an indiana jones moment for me and my friends. We started relating that bone to a any number of ghost stories and made a big fuss about it that someone was killed and was left over there by some ghost. When i think about it today i feel how silly it was i still remember how serious we were about the matter and puts a smile on my face now. But one i can learn from this incident is the level of curiosity me and my friends shared during that time. I thing we lost somewhere on the path of life.

You had a normal childhood, very much the same as mine, I was always out on an adventure, when I was a kid we only came inside to eat and sleep the rest of the time we were out discovering and experiencing, I think a lot of kids are missing out on this today..sad...

We all passes by that stage - being children. And as children we are full of curiosity and wonderment to things that we see. We also have imaginative minds when answers can't be found. Our mothers would even get tired answering us. But still, we learn from our curiosity, as we grow.
