| Today at lunchtime I ventured out onto the balcony,across the way there is a green area where the local school hold their annual sports day,god is it really a year ago since the last one,I can clearly remember walking home from work and seeing the same scene 12 months ago.Children in green,red,yellow and blue,their only goal in life to run,jump,skip and hop as fast as they can.I can hear the roars from their team mates as I type this and remember back to the days when I did the same thing.Lifes goals change as the years go by but if I could climb into a sack and hop 100 metres and feel a sense of achievment without being put on a course of Prozac now I would do so.How many of those happy screaming kids will look back 30 years from now and wish they were back there.Life is indeed what we make it but how I wish I had those carefree days back again when I could run like the wind and had to brush the hair from my eyes,and the dreams I had were there for the taking.If we had the knowledge of our years back then what use would we put them to I wonder.Then again if as a result we lived a life where each day was perfect we would not know how good those days were because we would know no unhappiness.I would still like to try the sack race though. |
