My friends and I were on a trip to riverside when I saw one of my friend throwing pebbles in pond. I could tell from her face that she was enjoying this childish act. I could not stop asking her what was so interesting about this.
“Here, take this and try yourself”, she gave me one small pebble.
I laughed seeing that pebble and thought “What am I doing” but just for sake I threw it in water without any enthusiasm. Obviously it didn’t go too far.
“Come on, you can do better. Put some energy and throw it far” teased my friend.

I picked small pebble lying on the ground nearby. This time with little interest.
AND Splashhhhh!!! It jumped two times on water and went far enough from first one.
Third pebble
Fourth pebble
Fifth!!
And on and on….I was in game....
I felt like I am throwing my frustration and worries in water far away from me. We laugh when someone around us start acting childish but once we try the same we know how much refreshing and rejuvenating it is. There is child in all of us, sitting quietly in one corner of our heart and impatiently waiting to get release and enjoy. This incident helped me setting lose a child inside me. Now most of time I am kid more than adult. Feels good.....

yes Jim...small things can make lot of difference...
I did that sometimes,being a childish is a a great way to free our minds for all the frustration that we have. keep posting sneha .. i like it..
I know exactly what you mean. I have two kids of my own and sometimes, we as adults, get caught up in being so serious in life that we forget to laugh or relieve stress. I know I do at times, but my kids help bring the kid in me back to life. They show me that no matter what you are going through or what age you are, that you should always make time for yourself to jut act silly. In the end you will find that it makes you feel hundred times better and makes you forget all your worries. It takes no thought or hassle to have fun...that's why everyone should do it every once in a while.
yes Cherry and Shantell...we should keep the kid inside us alive..
