Page 14 - THE PATH

I wonder and can not figure out how people can be
so cruel and headstrong when solving the big and long-

lasting issues, imposed to them by the others.

When a baby is born, it is pure, sincere, cute and

innocent. I remember when I was for or five, I was very
happy. I loved my mother very much indeed. I grew up in

a very pleasant atmosphere and I did not have any

particularly bad moments in my childhood. My father was
a wonderful parent who did his best to please me and to

give me warmth and serenity. I loved my parents. I truly

loved my now late elder sister. In other words, things
were ideal.

I started school when I was six. I went to school by

myself although it was about a kilometer away from my

home. My neighbors were surprised that such a small child
should go to school all alone and so far, but it must have

been in my genes… my wish to travel.

On one occasion, my father took me to a football

match in the City Stadium. There was a huge crowd and I
somehow lost my father. I tried to find him in that crowd,

but I couldn’t. I gave up trying and decided to go home

alone.
