Would you like to discover about my childhood so that you can better understand my character and also my very personality some twenty years before. Two days ago, I came across one of the @jerrybanfield posts in which he has organized a supernatural writing contest. There are very good and intellectual writers at the steemit platform and it will be difficult for me to compete with them in this contest. But wise people say that something is better than nothing. Also everyone can participate in this contest so let me avail this chance and express my views and let the readers decide if there is something interesting in my presentation or not. As I am new at steemit so I think that this is my learning phase and I won’t be disappointed if my work is not up to the readers expectations.
Twenty years ago we were living in a village with great natural beauty and farming fields at all the four sides of our house. In short, my village is simply a small piece of what we say, the heaven. I had four uncles and we used to live in a joint family. My father was the elder amongst all. I had two first cousins and they were two years older to me.
I used to be very naughty in my childhood. By every means, I was not a good boy. I used to fights with my cousins and neighbors and also snatch their toys. I often used to break their heads with small stones. For my notorious acts I was most often punished by my parents but it was not going to bring any sort of change in my character and attitude. So that was the routine life of my childhood. Playing with my cousins and neighbors and when something went wrong, then starting fight with them and beating them.
Before going further, I would like to share some of the beautiful pictures of my village which I myself also love very much.
Coming back to our story;One day, some of our relatives came to our house. There was one guy who was much elder than us and he told us to climb to the mountain which was near to the village. We also readily said yes and went towards the mountain. We were round about seven or eight kids in total. The view of the village from the top of the mountain was very amazing and here I can’t explain it in words. I still use to visit my village if there is some sort of function. Well coming back to my story, as I said we were on top of the mountain. Now I don’t exactly know what happened there but all that happened was that my foot slipped and in the next couple of seconds I was rolling down the mountain. But fortunately, there were no such rocks and stones near me that could have had hurt me seriously. There was a sort of flat region just above the base of the mountain and finally I found myself lying there. My friends also came down towards me and lifted me up. Within a few minutes I got myself normal. When I stood up, all my body was filled with spines. In the very same situation I had also lost one of my shoes somewhere while falling down. While on our way back to our house we were thinking for an excuse as what to say at home that what has happened to us? When we returned home, we were asked about the matter. As we have already decided what to say, I told them that I was chased by dogs in the mountain and so in that scenario I fell down and this happened to me.
Days were passing with the same daily routine until we had to shift from our village to the city as I was growing up and I had to take admission in a school. I had already been to the school in village as well but there I studied up to grade II only. By now my age was almost seven years. I got admission in grade III. This school had a good standard and a well-disciplined environment. As it is mostly said that environment has a great effect on the personality of the man. Similar thing also happened to me and the notorious child was changed to a good child with the passage of time. I had developed friendship with my class-mates and also got good attention of the teachers. I am up till now very thankful to all of my class-mates and the teaching faculty who discovered the gold within the raw material. I also started taking interest in my studies and was scoring good in the exams. Many of our relatives asked me how had I changed from a naughty boy to a nice boy and my simple answer is that the entire change is my character is due to the new environment that polished my character and skills.
As I only have the theoretical memories of my childhood so I feel sorry that I can’t share any of my childhood pictures. But wait a minute, I have kept safe one of my picture in my wallet which I shooted for my admission at the school for grade III.
Though the picture quality is not that much good but it sill worth a lot to me.I don’t want to elaborate my story very much because that will make you feel bore and I don’t want to lose the readers interest. So I would like to wind up my story and please share your views in the comments section below after reading my post. If you think that there is some need of improvement, feel free to express your opinion. Any helpful comments from your side will highly be appreciated. Furthermore I would love to have @jerrybanfield and @Curie read my post and if finding it interesting please
Thank you for your precious time.
