Not talking
about the elementary years where you are too young and still learning basic
life survival skills or the high school years when you are a baby-adult testing
your ideology as it forms. I’m talking about the middle school years. The years
when you are still a kid but starting to form your own personality.
Did the kids
come by and ask you to come out to play ball because you were a jock? Were you
invited to tea parties and gossip? Did kids hang out at your house because you
had the best toys? Did you dad entertain the kids with stories of the war or
mess with his car or miniaturize train? Would everyone come by lunchtime
because your mom baked great cookies?
Think about
those summer vacations when you didn’t have to go to a building with a bunch of
strangers. What did you do? Who did you hang around with?
Do you wish
you were that same kid?
