[ 491. Playground ]
Just brought my little cousin down to buy some stuff and to the playground for a few moments of fun. As he played and jumped around, i realized how easily satisfied he as a kid was. As kids... i remember spending countless hours at the castle-like playground back at tampines. Playing catching and other dumb games by today's standards. I mean... my cousin went down the same slide at least fifteen times and that sparkle in his eyes didn't wear off. The thrill shown by his wide grin and bursting enthusiasm in running to every slide really shows how easily a child can be satisfied. But can we forever remain that way...? I guess not. If someone sees me play that playground in a manner similar to my cousin, i run the risk of getting a place at hougang chalet. We are sort of forced to grow up... to see a bigger problem, face greater pressures and eventually, lose our joy that we so easily get when we are young. If only the world is as simple as a playground... |
