I have seen while we speak to old pals or even having a general discussion, most of the times we mention that “those were the best days of my life”. Especially it’s our childhood times when we are happy-go-lucky and free; wow those childhood days; no tensions just enjoy and have a blast.

I am perplexed because I remember well when young, I always wanted to grow up as soon as possible, be independent, work and earn. I was convinced that the years to come by will be the best days, when I would be all by my self. I will live my life my own way and on my own terms and above all no more studies and exams.

Today, when I am at that stage wherein I am independent and happy yet whenever we chat with friends I always comment “those good old days, miss them so much”.

Just thinking it loud, few years down the lane when I am retired and have nothing better to do, I will not shy away from admitting, those were the days when I used to work and enjoy. J
