Trip Down Memory Lane Sarah Bianca V. Sarita
How would you feel if you're a young child again? No pile of homework, problem, and heartache. Everything just seems bright and perfect. If given a chance, I would go back to my childhood years.
I believe childhood is the best period of life. It is the era of innocence. It is more on happiness instead of sorrow. Do you still remember when there was always a smile on our faces as the wind brushed through our hair? Or the different kinds of pain when we fell on our bicycles? The sweet agony, indeed. At least we learned to continue moving forward. Likewise, the feeling of victory when we finally reached the largest fruit after several attempts of climbing the mango tree. Those were the days when simplicity brings so much contentment. I am certain that childhood is the greatest stage of our life because we used to run and play like there's no tomorrow.
Countless street games surely marked our hearts, not just our knees and elbows. The warmth of the sun could not stop us from beating our opponents, especially if it was a heated match. But our excitement grew more when raindrops started to wet the grass. It meant something else; an unexplainable feeling. We just enjoyed every moment of our life. Being a
child also means forgiving and forgetting. We might have fights but we tend to forgive and forget easily. Without a doubt, childhood will always be the best; so much glee and serenity.

Answers & Comments
Answer:
1. The author feels nostalgic at not just the very first sentence but also the whole article itself.
2. The reasons or the purpose of the author about this certain topic is to show or tell how childhood is one of the best part of living (though I believe that holding your child in your arms for the very time is the very best) just seeing how it's filed with joy, innocence, and curiosity that you can easily see in a child's eyes.
3. At the part where the wind would brush our hair, when a child would fall off their bike during their first rides, how street games marks not only our knees and elbows but also our hearts.
4. By capturing the feels of their reader, by how much nostalgia an adult or a teen would feel just by reading the sentences in the second paragraph using a word in a questioning way which is "Remember".
5. By not doubting and by surely knowing how much glee and serenity there is in each child there is, even those who have grown up already.
