This a collection of short stories presenting events and people that came into my life and left a strong impression on me. This is the initial part of my life when I was a child not yet in my teens and are very close to my heart. Growing up I have felt that life changed to an enormous extent and as a child I did not know that the life of grownups is far too difficult and unmanageable to say the least. This book reflects the fun days of my life that were challenging in themselves especially when it came to making an effort to understand what ailed my father in his constant struggle to keep us afloat and give us a happy life.
