I do recall an incident where I actually helped a child get what she wants. You see I have this young cousin who is about four or five years old and she had a reputation for misbehaving in the public. When she visited my city, she was really keen on going to the beach. However her parents were reluctant considering her reputation. However she managed to persuade me and I took the responsibility of taking her to the beach. She was fascinated and intrigued when we actually arrived at the beach. She really enjoyed that moment. She was fascinated by the sea, fascinated by the crowd. Most importantly her eyes were fixed on the toys that were being sold at the beach. I can say that she really enjoyed it, enjoyed the visit to the beach. This moment was invaluable for me as this doesn’t often occurs in my life. As an introverted individual these occasions are really rare for me. Hence they are valuable and I will cherish these moments as long as I can.
