There are things now that we really miss simply because we cannot do it anymore because we are adults. It so funny to realize how we missed the opportunity of doing some stuffs during childhood. Is that true to you? Let's take a pose and have a look on these following truth.
Because of this busy and tiresome works we have in the office and in the house, how we dream to have a break and just sleep all day to refresh our strength, right? But try to recall how our parents scolded us only just to make us sleep during afternoon. But with all our childish minds, we wanted to play than to take a nap. How I wish I can go back to childhood so that I can have all the chances to sleep anytime as I want.
During childhooh, we still had frail and small feet to walk that our father carried us in his arms as we walked in the street. Do you remmeber that moment? But as kids, we want to run and walk all by ourselves, not wanting our parents to be part of our walking. This time as adults, how we wish we can have a father who will carry and substitute us in our hardships, pains and suffeirngs. How we wish to have a strong arm to hold on. How I wish I can go back to childhood so that I can have my father to guide me in the way.
Our mothers cooked delicious foods for us when we were kids so that we will be strong and healthy. But we did not give importance to it because we wanted to play most of the times rather than to eat meals. Sometimes we like to eat candies instead of the foods prepared by our mothers. Now that we are old, we cook and prepare foods for ourselves. We find it hard to make our own foods specially we don't have enough money to buy. How I wish I can go back to childhood so that I can have to eat the foods prepared by my beloved mother.
Is that true to you?

Hi, Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could go back to childhood.I often think about how I could change the way things are if I could go back.I would know better how to bring my children up.and not make the mistakes I have made in my life.I love my children very much and wish I had done better by them.When I was growing up life was so much simpler.Yes it would be nice to go back.Yes, I too wish I could eat the food prepared by mother again.She was a great cook. Bless you. Have a good night.

Its any day more comforting to be loved unconditionally and to be taken care of without you having the need to give back anything in return. Its always the nicest thing to feel assured that any trouble comes, you have someone to go back running to: you parents. Its been 7 years I stay away from my family in a different city for work and get to go home only once a year. These are the things of childhood that I miss a lot and wish to get back all the comfort and luxury of beign take care of all the time.

Me, too I always wish to go back to my childhood and experience life in a more fascinating way. I have a very happy childhood back in the province, I grew up in a beautiful environment where our neighbors are both our relatives so I have a very happy moments with them. Christmas season is my favorite season of the year. My cousins and me used to roam around the place and make carolling.
The magic of innocence then protected me from the glaring reality of life that I never recognized the word 'complication', but when I entered college and work after graduation, the misery of the surroundings frustrate me that I had wish I was a child again, chasing butterflies in the backyard and splashed into the beaches with my naughty classmates unminding if the financial crisis flung into the pacific ocean.
Well as what the saying goes: Life is not always fair, you can get splinters even sliding down the rainbow.

I just wish I could go back to being a child, they don't realize how easy they have it. We were so excited about growing up, but now that we are we realize that its not so much fun with all the responsibilities we have.
