This week my blog is going to be kind of messed up but at the same time have somewhat of a sense of humor. When you're a kid you are really fearless, you believe that no obstacles can defeat you in this case a monkey bar. When twirling on the monkey bar and a sweater is used to comfort your turns, you forget that it both makes it easier to spin but at the same time easier to fall on your face.
While I was enjoying the free space and the beautiful view of the park a family pulled up in the parking lot (which actually surprised me). There were two kids and just the mom. The two kids automatically went to the jungle gym and the slides. The younger one on the baby slide and the older one on the monkey bars. After a few minutes, the girl decided to make it a little more exciting and she put her sweater on the bar, after a couple of turns...... BAM she falls on her face. Knowing that I would be known as the rude and disrespectful person to laugh when a kid gets hurt I tried to keep it in as long as I could. After a couple of seconds of laughing under my own breath, I went to check up on the little girl (to make sure she was fine). At that second I knew she hated the world and at that time gravity. These are the times as a kid, you know that this is one messed up life.
I agree about the thing you said with a kid thinking no obstacle could stop them because I was exactly like that when I was a kid. As a kid I loved life and once I got into middle school, I realized how messed up life was so Im different from this little girl. Good job
ReplyDeleteI understand the struggle of not seeing children and families at the park. It is indeed sad and the children today don't understand the fundamentals of creating childhood memories at the park. I enjoy reading your blog!
ReplyDeleteI really like how you relate your own experiences into your blog and I especially like this post because I can definitely relate to this. The idea that you're trying to convey here is a very good one, but you might want to break it up into a few more paragraphs and possibly lengthen it. Other than that I think it was really good and I enjoyed reading it!
ReplyDeleteNot gonna lie, I laughed as well so you're not the only one. I would suggest using some punctuation, I'm not saying I'm perfect either but I think it would enhance your writing.
