Something Fascinating

Isn't there something fascinating about the lives of 14, 15 year-olds? I guess I missed that kind of exciting, care-free, hilarious times of my life.

Gossiping about teachers, asking stupid questions, making funny faces, cracking silly jokes, little hand gestures, silly little games....

Just seeing my Sec 2 boys and girls live their lives like that.. as if there is nothing in the world to trouble them, brings a smile to my face. That kind of harmless silliness and ability to smile at everything thrown at them, I guess that is what I miss. And of course in a few years' time, they will probably outgrow that stage.

Silliness turns to maturity, and a lot less excitement and a lot more responsibility.
