Fraction of Memories

          Happiness. Sorrow. Loneliness. These are all parts of a person’s memories. Memories that can’t be taken away from you and will help you grow to be better individuals. Like any other people my memories are a combination of the three.
            I remember some of my reveries during my childhood were being a princess in a castle, a superhero like those characters in Voltes 5, Sakura, Gundam Seed, X-men, and many other characters in cartoons. I even dream of being a singer in television. I dream to be Carol Banawa and Jessa Zaragosa in television. I used to memorize their songs before. These things isn’t only true for me, but for all of us.
Reminiscing these things gives me a positive look throughout my life. It reminds me of the idea to step upon one small stones in my life, so that I can reach the finishing line. The essence of the kid’s way of facing challenges is not looking at it negatively, but in a positive way that can help us to develop into mature individuals.
            On the other hand, I remember years ago, my mama and papa used to scold me, when I did wrong. I remember I used to take the full responsibility of losing my things at school where in fact it was stolen from me. I’ve heard from my parents and I’ve accepted their punishment. I crying hard that day, thinking to say the truth to my parents, but I couldn’t hardly told them for I’m afraid they will go to my school and confront any of my classmates and teachers.
            Basing on that event, I regret I haven’t told them the truth, not because I wanted them to confront anyone, but because starting that time, I started to take responsibility in taking care of the things that were at the first place were not my faults. I became afraid of the outcomes if I told the truth. Maybe someday somehow I can fix it.  
            Another memory that I can’t forgot was the happiness that I felt when I’m with my family. I felt like I was secured that whatever happens they were there for me. I love that memory, because at that time our life is simple — less intense problems, healthy family members and all of the members of the extended family were in good terms. I love the peacefulness and the camaraderie that’s in the family.
            As a whole, I’m thankful for God, for giving me life, good parents and a good environment to live. These childhood memories will never be changed. Yet, I can learn from them to improve my life at the moment.
