Greetings dear readers.
Have you ever started remembering something by someone, a smell, an image, a place, etc?
I am sure you have, well let me tell you that, this kind of experience it is called flashback and it is also a method applied in movies and literature.
This week, we worked at class this concept by constructing a little paragraph where we told our first experience remembering the day we met the proffesor Jean Paul.
Here it is what I wrote:
As I am In Jean Paul's class, I hear in the distance the thunders, which reminds me of the frist day I met him with that explosive personality he has and how funny I thought his beard was.
And now if you allow me, I am going to developt this concept in a tale.
Sometimes I look back trying to recover what I lost. I try to recover those artifacts so useful that were lost in every battle. I see encapsulated those moments, still in time.
From that moment there are only a trace of photos that remind me that days like those are not going to happen anymore.
I remember those afternoons when I was going home from my studies. I had to go through some beautiful architectures that matches the nature. Those yellowish shades of light in the morning and afternoon were perfect, therefore I used to turn to not go home and I laid down in the lawn for a while in neighbor garden that was next to an old mansion that had become a nursing home.
After revel in the landscape, I enjoyed throwing a few stones to the windows of the mansion. It was very fun to break those glasses and fit an occasional pebble in the nurses bra while they came running after me with the spirit of taking me to the police, but I was a very clever boy and just a few people could beat me running. After fleeing and cause such havocs, I headed home hoping to eat a plate of beef soup. My mother used to made the best beef soup.
When I ended the meal I prepared myself to enjoy watching the cartoons with my brother all day long, awating the return of our father's work
He always brought us some surprise; they were mostly toys and trinkets. My mother deceived us grabbing much of what my father brought us by making us believe we could not eat too much sweet and flour.
In this moment I remember those days, those moments are freezen in time. I can feel in every throb how I wish I could revive those glory days, when there was no existence of such a dire word "responsibility". Times when the only thing that worried me was the arrival time of my dad from work.
That was my tale, I hope you liked it. I just have one question for you today.
What was the best memory from your childhood?
Hi Káser, I hope you are doing well.
ResponderEliminarI liked it your post and your little tale. It was fascinating for me because every time I watch my photos I have the same attitude towards them, they always brings back good memories about some moments in my life that as you say, will not return. Whenever I see them, a tear comes out from my eyes. It is a beautiful experience. Now, the most vivid remembrance I have is running barefoot along the beach and feel alive (no worries), feel the breeze and the warm sun that only the Coast has. Childhood is the best. Oh! I had a flashback...
Lucky you I'm sure you know some beautiful places and the best face of Apartado.

EliminarYes, of course. I want to clarify something, my memories being on the beach are not exactly from Apartadó but from Necoclí, a municipality located eight hours away from my hometown, which has no outlet to the sea.
EliminarWell , i had have many moments in my life That are in the deepest part of my heart .
ResponderEliminarWhen I was 10 years old my grandmother die , for me it was like the end of my life because she took care of me when I was sick or when my mother couldn't....So until that moment I didn't know that the people that you love the most, one day they could die.
For me was a traumatic experience because I was so young and I can never forget that moment when my favorite person in the whole world was inside of a box.
All days I remember her, with everything that I do or with everything that I say.

It is hard when the people you love desappear, thanks for sharing your story.
EliminarOh! Cesar your stories are really fantastic, I would not have the capidad to write something, it is incredible that you remember so many things that we have not seen.
EliminarWell, actually I have many memories of my childhood because I have the privilege of living near where I grew up and why I have no specific recollection, I would say the time when playing in the street.
