Hi guys ❤️
Do you have a сhildhооd memory that you often recall for some reason or without any particular reason? Perhaps I have already shared this memory here, but I want to share it again.
Every summer, my grandma and grandfpa and I would go to the village. I loved spending time there. I didn't have any friends in the neighborhood in the village, so I spent almost the entire summer on my own. But I was never lonely.
One of my favorite activities was catching frogs and observing them. I was a very curious сhild and always found something to do by observing nature. Perhaps that's why my love for nature is still with me and is reflected in my creative work to this day.
I remember that day well because of an unusual frog.
My grandmа and I were sitting on the porch of our old house, waiting for my dad. He was supposed to come from the city and bring me some sweets. I think I was about 4 or 5 уеars old. We didn't have phones back then, so I waited for my dad, listening for the sound of approaching cars.
Sitting on the porch and waiting my sweets, I leaned over and noticed a bright green frog. I wanted to pick it up, but my grandma stopped me and said, "No, don't touch it with your hands, it might be poisonous." She explained to me that it could be dangerous because of its color.
I don't know why, but that evening and that situation are filled with warmth, tranquility, happiness, and a sense of serenity.
Once I told this story to my best friend, and she said to me, "Let's go to your village." We took the car and went to the house of my memories. And, 24 уеars later, I am sitting on that same porch. It doesn't seem as big to me anymore, the forest across the way is not as dense, and the swamp where I used to catch frogs has almost dried up.
Memories of playing outside with friends, of first adventures and discoveries, of boundless imagination and creativity — these are a source of inspiration and strength for me. By cherishing all these moments, we can find new goals and directions in life. We can use these memories to create our own fairy tale and make each day special.
May these memories fill our hearts with warmth and inspire us to be happy, no matter how old we become.
