How far is it?

Remember when life was simple. Childhood offered so many beautiful ignorances. Yet all we wanted to do was grow up. As an adult I often hear people say how they wish they could be a kid again. Not me, yes there was some good points, but I think we can still have them. I enjoy cartoons, real funny movies, and when physically possible playing in the tunnels at Chuck E. Cheeses. Next time you and some friends are near a play ground, stop and play Lava (you know, when you play tag, but can't touch the ground, cause it's LAVA). Play hopscotch, buy a slinky and see if you can get it to go. Play marco polo. Remember that being playful is what childhood should be about. Be carefree as often as possible. Remember that what you are stressing about can't be improved by stressing and most likely that situation won't even be memorable, so let it go. Make your life have good memories, cause it is all in your hands. God has given a beautiful life and the ability to make what we can of it. So, how far away is childhood, as far as your desire is.
