I was a little girl once
Who believed in fairies
And guardian angels and Santa Claus,
I was a little girl once
Who believed the world was all
Chocolates and cakes and candy floss,
I was a little girl once
Who believed that everything
Could be set right with a hug and a kiss,
I was a little girl once
Who believed that pain
Was scraping your knee when playing,
I was a little girl once
Who believed that sadness could be cured
With a new doll or an icecream,
I was a little girl once
Who believed that nightmares vanish
With the light of day,
I was a little girl once
Who believed that every one
Who came to play was a best friend,
I was a little girl once
And I wish I could go back
To being that little girl once again....

In many a blogs, i detect a tone of melancholy and a leaning towards pathos. I would be glad to see a conscious effort to avoid this. After all, all our emotions are only what we ourselves want to feel. There is neither real pleasure or pain. Our heart merely feels what our head tells it to feel.

Growing up is soooooooo bad :( I hate growing up..Wish I could go bak to those times, when I and the others around me were naive and innocent and the world was much sweeter :(
badariji,
good to know your interests:-)
there are some moments in life when you can't help getting sad. and at those times, tools like blogging come in handy.:-)it is good to vent your sadness/loneliness in the ways you best express yourself.
nithya,
hey, growing up is not that bad:-)but those days were sure special:-)
I continue to stick to my stand - problems we face now and feel bad about, we will be laughing at in the near future. We need to keep telling ourselves that we are happy. There are very few reasons not to feel happy.
badariji,
you are right...today's problems may not seem problems at all tomorrow. but giving vent to your frustration that you feel at present helps you in relaxing and focusing on the solution. crying over problems does not solve them, of course, but expressing yourself does help a great deal...
