Amar chelebela( My childhood)

I have spend 18 Yrs of my life in Durgapur , The Steel City. Born to very simple parents in a middle class family, I was destined to see some of the hardships of life. But at the same time I was very lucky to get so many opportunities in life which helped me in so many occasions in life to prove myself. My mother was ( and is) a very courageous lady and she has always given us the mental strength. She was a real teacher to me and my elder sister(Didibhai). She enjoys teaching children ..she has lot of patience and she also took the opportunity to teach sonu the first alphabets whenever she got a chance. Baba is always a simple and down to earth human being anybody can imagine. Honesty can be the other name of my dad and fortunately i have inherited that. But fortune is always followed by misfortune...Unfortunately i am not outspoken at all which I think is really painful... so many instances i just cant express what i feel.... But but but this nature of mine was there till i became a mother ...sonu's birth has changed me to a far extent....But i want to be more expressive.
I had so many childhood friends other than my school friends..I have spent the best saraswati puja, Holi, rakhsha bandhan, picnics, Viswakarma puja with friends in Sagarbhanga colony J-Block. We had very hectic time in school with unit tests, all sorts of activities, surprise tests, homeworks....But still that time was so good, so memorable, so refreshing. Can anyone tell me how to bring the same time back so that we all can again again enjoy the time of togetherness, play all sorts of childhood games... and share our day to day stories. It has been years that we all have met together.
I have not got the taste of guavas, mangoes, lichi s, taalshash .......everything tastes different now..
May be its the touch of those warm fingers that makes the difference , A mother's touch.
