Today, I don't have much to say other than to share my past life experiences because anytime I remember those days and the things that I used to do with some friends, I used to laugh over them.

When I was in my childhood level there was a certain life that I used to live and when I was living it with some friends, my grandmother used to quarrel with me over it and most times I didn't even eat because of the life.

At my childhood level, I used to play a lot with friends and other neighboring people. We normally have a leader that leads the play, we chose him among us because he's technically gifted as he used to create cars with bottle coke covers, and other creative work.

Most times when we close from school, we'll all gather at one place and then discuss how we'll be playing for that day. When I remember how we used to unite and play together even without eating afternoon food or doing house duties, I feel as if life will take back to leave that kind of life. Imagine how we used to gather and arrange motorcycle tires and other creative works that we'll be using for the play. Most times, our play leader will other everyone to create his own car that we'll use to play for that day. I was only good at using empty sugar cartons to create cars while others used empty bottles and other creative items to make theirs.

Once we are done creating different kinds of cars, we'll all go hunting in the bush. We used to hunt for lizards, dragonflies, and other things that we used to play with.

After we're done hunting Lizard and dragonflies, we'll all be playing with it after we have used sand combined with the effort of our legs and hands to build houses for it. I know those who built houses with their leg and hand at the beach will understand.

Anytime we are playing with a lizard or a dragonfly and it dies in the process, we used to do burial for it and bury it. Our leader used to be the one that usually carried the dead dragonfly or lizard with his ambulance jeep created using bottle coke cover.

To escort before burring the dead dragonfly or lizard, we have some group that will be driving side by side and making way in front before those in line with the ambulance arrive. I used to be among those who have expired motorcycle tires as it used to be easy to escort the dead lizard or dragonfly. I used to use my mouth to blow a siren for the ambulance carrying the dead dragonfly or lizard till we got to our destination.

Once we are done burring the dead dragonfly or lizard, we'll all eat sand cooked as food. We don't usually swallow the sand but only eat it as we drop it on the external part of our throat.

One day, my grandmother punished me by not keeping afternoon food for me because I didn't want to stop my play. I still didn't care about the food and still went ahead to play. That day we were to escort the burial of a dragonfly and I wanted to claim hard man because I didn't eat to have energy for the play. I was among those to blow a siren for the burial. As I was escorting and blowing siren with my mouth for the dead dragonfly. At one point, I fell down and started crying. All my playing colleagues stopped and started telling me not to cry much. They all thought I was crying for the dead dragonfly not knowing I was crying because of hunger. Hmm, such is life.
