write essay on my childhood
Answers
In my childhood I knew no worry. I had no responsibility. I got everything without doing anything. My every wish was readily fulfilled.
I enjoyed perfect freedom. I could say anything to anybody. Nobody took offence. Even my meaningless words would be a source of joy to my parents.
I had a great power of imitation. I imitated the actions, movements and gesture of grown up people. Often i tried to walk like my grandfather.
My grandmother was perhaps my best friend. She was full of stories. Often I would ask her to tell me tales of princes and fairies. I spent most of my time with her. Whenever my mother got angry with me, my grandmother was always there to protect me.
I was very credulous in my childhood. I was as innocent as a lamb. I was, however, very curious by nature. I was always eager to know "why" and "how" of everything.
But gone are the days of childhood. Only sweet recollections of that Golden period are left . Would that I were a child again!
Answer:
My grandfather was a forbidding figure and we children as well as our parents were afraid of him. He was a powerful man who moved among rich and influential people. When he was at home we had to keep quiet and see that we did not disturb him. But he was fond of us in his own way.
There was a room on the third storey of our use which was our play room. Here my cousins and I used to spend many a lazy afternoon playing games and plucking mangoes and jamba from tree branches close to the windows. Or we would slide down the banisters, one after the other.
Every year the entire family went on a vacation to some place. It was even more fun then. One thing I remember vividly about my childhood is my reluctance to go to school. Every day I would make some new excuse to stay away until my father had to come and spank me. I also remember the succession of tuition teachers who came to teach me Math.
I was very fond of one, an Anglo-Indian called Eva. She was very pretty and kind. But the happiness ended when my uncle left for another city to take up a new job. My aunt and cousins also left and it became quite lonely after they went away.
Hope it helps...
