holidailies

I joined a new challenge called Holidailies... to blog every day from December 1st until January 1st.

Today's question is: What childhood activity do you miss? What childhood activities have you refused to give up?



I miss the artistic freedom I felt--that I could color or draw or dance or sing or do anything creative without self-editing. Not that I am terribly inhibited as an adult, but, I don't get the same sense of joy and freedom when I pursue the arts.

I refuse to stop blowing bubbles (bubble stuff or with gum) and I refuse. Actually, I am quite artistic now, just with different materials--like colored pencils are my preference over crayons or markers...

Probably because childhood was very difficult for me--without going into too much detail, when I chose to leave the stuff behind, I embrace my child-like nature. Child like without being childish, I like to say.
