time passes by

when we were small
we asked for attention
we asked for a hand to hold us
we asked but we couldnt voice out

when we were growing up
we asked for toys
we asked for games
we asked for time together

when we were teens
we seek for fun
we seek for enjoyments
we seek for affections

when we were working
we seek for position
we seek for increments
we seek for a life partner

when we were married
we seek for security
we seek for stability
we seek for a family

when we have children
we ask for good grades
we ask for their going out
we ask for their perfection

when we are grey headed
we asked for time with family
we asked for love and affections
we asked but we never voice it out

something that i just realised when i attended a retreat a few weeks ago. that we are actually moving in a circle. i was just looking at some of the kids and how they react. they just want to have fun together but sometimes when we get older, we tend to rationalise too much. we question too much and sometimes just loosing out the reason to have fun.

so... have fun in whatever you do..! ;o)
