When I was five ,my favorite activity to do was color in coloring books. I use to ask my parents to buy them for me every time I went to the store. I use to get the Disney Princess collections, Lion King ,Barney and other cartoon characters that I liked .Coloring was the one thing I liked to do when I was bored . I was a only child back then and I didn't really like to go outside that much. The neighborhood that I lived in did not have that many children ,so I had to find something to do .I was always good at keeping myself occupied. For some reason when I was a child, color was very attracting to me .I liked the vibrate aspects of the different shades .I don't really remember much about my childhood when It comes to my creativity. No I am not an artist to day but sometimes I like to color to relax and to get my mind off of certain situations.(Sorry this is not a perfect ,imperfect story)

This sort of reminds me of my childhood with the coloring. I LOVED to color. Especially the Disney princess'.
ReplyDeleteI think everyone can agree that certain activities worked better than others when we were children. I cannot even draw stick figures correctly so coloring wasn't my specialty either but I'm glad it worked for you. I love how your last sentence is placed, it's what worked for you so it is perfect!
ReplyDeleteI love this and definitely relates to me as well! I was a pretty outgoing creative child growing up with a wild imagination but coloring took me beyond it. I was never an artist as well and coloring books and connecting the dots were the closest I came to drawing a picture or actual figure. Lol. I use love getting princess and Barney coloring books, they were my favorite. I actually still have some pictures that I colored in my childhood photo album. They bring back great memories.
ReplyDeleteI entered a comment to you on Mar. 21st 6:45 am, checked back and it wasn't here. I know what it feels like to be the only child but your story says you were an only child for a little while. Coloring is also a type of therapy and I still, not often, but I still will color if it becomes available to me to try to zone out the chaos of the world. I think your story was written from the heart.
ReplyDeleteI have entered a comment twice once the morning of Mar. 21st and Mar.24 2:49 but it said 12:49 so I don't know. I know what it feels like to be the only child but your story says you were an only child just for a little while. Coloring is a type of therapy and I still, not often, but I still will color if it becomes available to me to try to zone out the chaos of the world. I think the story was written from the heart.
