Composition: My Childhood Memories

Childhood is the period of time when someone is a child. Something that everybody remembers from the past is called memory. The memories that somebody has of his/her childhood are called childhood memories (স্মৃতি).I cannot forget my childhood memories. Whenever I am alone, the sad memories of my childhood flash through my mind. When I was five years old, I was admitted to our local primary school, where I studied up to class II. I was not attentive to my studies. So my class teachers would often cane me. As our family was a poor one and as there was no congenial (উপযোগী) environment of education in our family, my parents sent me to my grandfather’s home, where there was congenial environment of education. Since I was only 7 years old, I did not want to leave my parents. At the time of leaving our family I wept bitterly. My mother also could not help shedding tears profusely (পরিমাণে).

Though my grandfather’s family was rich and educated, I could not adjust myself to the new environment, which was hostile to me. I was admitted to class IV in a primary school, where a maternal uncle of mine worked as a teacher. He would often beat me black and blue with a cane (4). As I expressed my reluctance (অনিচ্ছা) to continue my studies in that school, my father got me admitted to another primary school. After completing primary education I got admitted to a high school, from which I passed the S.S.C examination.

My elder maternal uncle was very unkind to me. He would often beat me either with a cane or a stick. 501 As a result I lost my zeal (উদ্দীপনা) for studies. I always shed tears to see the affectionate (স্নেহময়) look of my mother. When I visited her at our house, she was absolutely delighted and kissed (চুমু দেওয়া) me on my forehead (কপাল). At the time of departing from her I sighed (h) with tears holding the end of her ‘sharee.

Instead of concentrating (মনোযোগ দেওয়া) on my studies I wasted valuable time playing different kinds of games, visiting my relatives, catching fish in the field and the pond and climbing (চড়া) trees by stealth for mangoes, guavas, coconuts, etc.

My childhood memories were really sorrowful. Though during my childhood I was neglected (অবহেলিত), the Almighty Allah fulfilled my dream of receiving university education and obtaining (লাভ করা) the highest post in my job.
