live a day child like
TRANSCRIPT
When we were children, we wanted to grow as soon as possible. We wanted to be authoritative person as soon as possible but at that time we were ignorant that power comes with responsibility and have its own cost and one of them could be the childhood.

After all those years and all those thoughts we are at the place, where we wanted to be.
But now we want our childhood again. We want to do childish talk, we want to laugh carefree, we want to dance for ourselves, we want to enjoy that Barf-ka-Gola, orange candies, lollipop treats again and again, and many more things which we just can remember but can’t live again for the whole life. Now those childhood inexpensive things are much more precious to us than the luxury we have right now.
Almost 90% people would love to re-live their childhood if got the opportunity, so why to wait for the opportunity? Just live it again in our terms, maybe not for whole life but few of the things can keep that hidden child alive.
Do you know why kids are happier ?They are happy because :They talk less to themselves. They laugh easily and cry easily. They do not keep grudges in their heart. Their mind is free of comparisons. They are easy to convince. (or we are more
reluctant)They are more ready with questions than
answers (They are good learners). They do not hesitate to show affection. We cannot reproduce all those qualities again
but can incorporate few of the things at least.
I know that at this stage it’s kind of impossible being childlike completely but at least we can have a choice of spending a day childlike. So do you really want to spend a day child-like? If yes then get ready.
Note 1: if you have kids, it would be easier because you would get a reason to be childlike and it would be a surprise gift for them too.
Note 2: You cannot completely become a child as no one is going to spoon feed you, no one is going to keep you on their lap when you are tired, no one is going to keep you aside and going to take hard time on them.
You are not a child now but you want to live in that way, so basic things you have to do by yourself such as making tea/coffee, making breakfast. But don’t worry make it simple, such as you can have tossed bread and jam in your breakfast.
Note 3: Never think of spending the whole day on your couch watching TV on the name of ‘a day childlike’, because in childhood it was really tough to stay at one place for hours.
So let us find out few ways to get that childhood back.
Choose a day when you want to awake the child, who stays inside you. The day can be any holiday so that your plan would not hinder your work. Preferably choose the days when you have a long weekend or can choose any Saturday so that you don’t have to be stressed about to join the office again.
It’s a boon for kids to wake up late when they don’t have school. So you too can enjoy this luxury on that day.
What can be more fun than watching Tom and Jerry, Duck Tales, Mogli, Doremon, Ninja Hatodi or whatever would have been your favorite cartoon. Or you can choose it to be the latest cartoon series on TV.
Today you can buy all kind of expensive chocolates but no one can bring the fun of licking that so inexpensive lollypop, which can last long for hours to make your sibling feel jealous.
It’s purely a fun to remind those kindergarten rhymes. In childhood, it was so terrible to mug up those rhymes but now we feel happy that those were so easy. In fact, we got surprised that in childhood we never become able to infer what the poem interprets or what it tries to teach us. So watching again those poems can surprise you for sure, especially that ‘ek chidiya, anek chidiya...’
When we watch kids playing, it reminds us our childhood games. Jump off from stairs, hide and seek, chain-chain, and many more games which we think we cannot play today because we now become one of those responsible citizens.
Don’t hesitate, just Rejuvenate all those memories again without thinking about – what people would say.
It will bring out the child inside you. I can bet you will draw that scenery again if you will get blank paper and crayons. Maybe that sun could be here and there, that river may have changed the flow but for sure that imagination will bring out the old memory once again.
Do you still able to remind those rented cycle rides in summer vacations. We used to have rides continuously for an hour, still left with the thrust to ride more. Now you can enjoy it again and in fact, this will give you a hidden profit of being a fit person.
Do you remember Chacha Chaudhary, Pinki, Billu, Super commando Dhruv, Nagraj. My favorite one was Bankelal. Whenever you remind about your favorite comic character, your favourite comic character’s patent dialog will surely come out of your mouth.
Vikram betal, singhhasan battisi, panchtara stories reminds us of grandparent’s bedtime stories. Maybe we have forgotten the stories but didn’t forget that amazement of the stories.
Barely there would be a person who hadn’t enjoyed bubbling around that soapy water. In fact today also this can convert you into a laughing child who would love to create endless bubbles of every size and would try to make biggest of them till the end.

I love this thing up to the extremity that I never left any chance to blast the balloons of my twin girl’s theme party. This fun blows my heart to the bottom. You too can use this method to bring out the child inside you.
To feel like child, there are enormous possibilities but only one condition is there that you want to keep alive that child inside you. So keep initiating those efforts to which can keep your innocence alive and afresh.
