Be always a child, and never wish to grow up email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life1 year ago

Do you ever think like, be always a child and never wish to grow up? I often think about the same. In our childhood we wanted to grow up as early as possible. One of our childhood dreams might be, grow up like our father/mother then joining in an office and earning something. I think each and every child has the same dream. But when we became an adult then only matured enough to understand that we lost the great and valuable time. I know that our childhood never returns to us but we can keep it in our mind.

What is your thinking? Do you want to be a child again?

I think we just miss the old days when we are younger and with no problems whatsoever to think of. I think those easy days we once had really brings us again to wish we are young again. Maybe that when we think of an outlet, being a child again is the easiest way to once again pamper our way out of some problems.

When you are growing up the more you encounter more trials, defeats and triumphs in life. Unlike when we says, that if we remain to our age, all things will be alright for us. How i wish i could go back with those days when are still young.

Both of you are talking about the advantages. If we remain a child we don't want to take any responsibilities. But I never meant it like that. I love the innocence of a child, his innocent smile, and their talks etc was in mind when I was posting the discussion. Thanks for pointing out the other side as well. Have a nice day to both of you.

You are right that kids always want to grow up too fast. It is important to remember what being a kid is like so we can identify with the way our kids think and remember that childhood should be fun. No, I wouldn't want to be a child again. I think one reason kids want to grow up is so they can do what they want without adults always telling them what to do. I know I enjoy being my own boss and not being told what to do so, I will stick with adulthood.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

Don't worry you are not going to a kid any more. But does it mean that you don't like children? May be you don't like to depend anybody. I appreciate your honesty. Thanks and have a nice time to you.


myLot reputation of 82/100. Piscesmoon (2885)   ranked 1,712 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

You got the wrong idea. I LOVE kids (especially my own 3) but I am certainly glad I am not one anymore. And it is not that I don't like to depend on anyone. It is that I don't like being bossed around. Big difference.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

Ok thanks for clearing me. Happy to read your response again. Good luck and enjoy your day.

even,myself thought to be a child forever,enjoying the happy moment in life of childhood...also everyone thinks the same...being a grown up means to face lots of difficulties in life..like misery etc..but even if we are adult,the memories of childhood...can give little happiness in life...anyways happy lottin.. happy


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

I agree but the memories are good and we can be a child in heart. All are thinking that only grown ups have problems and miseries. Why? Thanks for your time and have a nice time to you.

Hi sreekala, I guess most people feel like this on times. We miss the carefree days of childhood, but there are some who have to start working so young that they miss even these few years of freedom. I think often of my childhood and probably wish that I could relive some of it, but that is not unusual as one grows older. Blessings.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

Some kids have to work for their livelihood and hardly have they enjoyed life. The bitter part is that they often scolded and beat by the employers. They also grow and become an adult and I don't know what their thinking about their childhood is. I am sure they never like to remember about their childhood. I really feel sad on them. May GOD bless them too. Thanks for the response and have a nice time.

sometimes, i wish to be like peter pan who never grows up but sad to say, that story can't happen in real life. lol. now, i just have to accept that we grow and age and soon we die. lol. all we could to is to enjoy our lives and refrain from doing things we soon would regret.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

I am sorry to say that I don't know the story. Can you share it please. Yes we are grown ups and can't be a child again. But we will be a child again, not physically but in character/nature. Have you heard that 6 years old and 60 years old have much comparison in their nature. But there is no guarantee that we will live up to that age (lol). Thanks for the response and have a nice time.

No I would not want to be a child again. I did not like being a child. I was not a happy child and it was not an easy time in my life.

I am much happier being older and having more knowledge and understanding of the world around me.

I can still enjoy doing the same things I enjoyed in childhood, like reading books
and observing nature.

My life just keeps on getting better as I get older. I am only too happy to have left those childhood years far behind.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

I understand your feelings. I really appreciate your honest reply and am too happy to know that you are leading a happy life now. Forget about the past and please enjoy the present, I am sorry if my post hurts you. Thanks and have a very nice time to you. Keep smiling.

Yaa! everyone likes to be a child mostly.
we got no problems at all not to do anything just play no studies only fun do whatever you wanna do nobody shouts at you no one scolds at you so its very nice to be a child I feel to be a kid its to boring to be a grown up its very hard .
i never wish to be grown up, mostly of the people will think that I wanna be a child but people who wanna drive car bike will wish to be a grown up and ofcourse to have our own money.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

Nice reply. You win to analyse both parts. Thanks and have a great day.

it is true that i miss my childhood days but i can wish that i never grow older but i believe that there is no point in such wishes that be just useless and we all have our memories of our childhood days and we can find joy and happiness.
sometimes when i walk on the road that i used to take on the way home from school, i imagine my bro and me having our school bags on the shoulder and chatting about how school was, then my feet by themselves slow down and there is a smile on my face and carry on.
i won't like to be a child again and like Shakespeare's seven ages of man "all will have a second childhood" and that is when we grow old.so, just wait and we will have our childhood back and can enjoy it!!
good luck


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

So sweet memories you have. I also have a smile in my face while reading your reply. Definitely we will have a second childhood. But it won't be sweet like our first one. Just wait and see. Thanks and have a nice time.

you cant win, when your old you want to be young and when your young you want to grow up.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

Yes, because we are human beings. They never satisfied with anything. Thanks for sharing and have a nice day.

Sreekala,
WOW! This is a great post. I'm a deep thinker and your words
really woke up some things that make me what I am, thanks.
There's a country music song that has a line in it
"Old enough to know better, but still too young to care" Wade Hayes
Even though I'm in my 50's, there are still times that I like to
just shuck all the rules and "play" or get wild and crazy and just not
care.
I remember how I just couldn't wait to be sixteen, drive a car and get to
date. Looking back on my life I see many things that I'd just love to
go back in time and live again.
I guess the fact that being an adult and facing the fact that we are responsible
for us, now - is something that we all should hope we learned while we were growing up.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Sreekala (1818)   ranked 1,007 out of 38,533 in life  1 year ago

Your name is so meaningful. I know may be it is not your real name but you have given a wonderful name. Ok coming to our topic, I understand you are 'old enough to know better' than me. I am happy to read your experiences when you were a kid. Thanks for sharing your wonderful feelings and have nice time. You are going to be a child again, of course in the second childhood that is at the age of 60. So please wait patiently, 10 more years there. All the best.
