Body

 

• Childhood

 

When I was a child I thought that we are all children and we will be like that all our life. We lived in our families, our parents and grandparents who were with us and I thought that that it will be forever. I thought that my grandparents were born like that as grandparents and also my parents were like that the whole life. The same time I thought that they will never will get older and will be like that forever. That will be our happy life. We children will grow but they will not change.

I had many friends around me both girls and boys and we did not really divide ourselves according our gender. It was just us, children and friends. We played boys games, climbing on hills, trees, stealing fruits from trees of our neighbours and we were running away from neighbours chasing us.

We played in adventure games and were pirates, musketeers and were fighting with other. In summer were playing football, basketball but also we did rope jumping.

 

• My body?...

 

Slowly we felt that we, girls were a bit different, we liked more dancing, chatting, looking in mirrors but still we had fun together and still had games and were best friends.

One day when I turned 12 years old I started to notice that my body started to change and it was when I put on my T-shirt, instead of flat chest I had slightly prominent breasts and that was something that made me scared and also ashamed. We were planning to have a ball games both boys and girls and that is why I had my t-shirt but now I was not sure if I can go like that I put on another sleeve shirt so that my breast is more flat. I then decided just to change my outfit style to cover the curves.

It was another day and we had a school class about our bodies and puberty and what will be happening. When I heard that all I was frustrated and hated that I still hoped that probably I will be an exclusion and will not have anything like that. But one day it was the day when the first period come and that was another thing that I was really ashamed. I hated my body and these changes, because boys were looking very weird and I stopped playing with my friends. It was the time when I understand that nothing will be as before, the changes in my body meant that it is a next step in my life. I hate it because I loved my childhood but I was not able to change it.

I would like to invite @saimaqasim, @joan-na and @uzma4882 for this contest
