I was sitting comfortably in our air conditioned lounge as it was really hot. But I was bored as I had nothing to do to entertain myself. Then an idea came to my mind. I went to my mother’s room and from her cupboard took out my album which had my pictures. I started viewing it and enjoyed all those past moments of my life.
An album is like a register but the difference is that it contains pictures instead of data. An album usually contains pictures of years from the time you were a baby till the day where you stand today — all your achievement, good enjoyable times or some special occasions. Seeing all these pictures is enough to bring a smile on your face. Also some memories are painful and can take away your smile such as a picture of one of your loved ones who has passed away.
The most fun way to indulge in the memories of your album is to sit in a comfortable chair or just lie down on a cosy bed with comforting ambiance without any distractions — just you and your album and you get lost in your childhood memories.
What your album should contain
Well, your album should contain pictures of good moments of your childhood like your first birthday or your 13th birthday, also special moments like if you got a position in any of your classes, or your picture of you and your friends, your first outing with your friends to a restaurant or places like that, your visit to places outside your country and pictures of tourist attractions or the pictures of any of your relatives’ weddings, etc.
Stuff like that indulge you in your past memories and make you happy after remembering your past life. In my opinion a photo album is a must to contain picture of your friends and best friend of your school life. These kind of photos attract you and you become very emotional after remembering your old school days, your school life, how you liked your school so much and how much you annoyed your teachers (heh). Apart from these, photos of your visit to your outer places also get you into thoughts of how beautiful that place was and how you enjoyed or how hectic your stay was there.
A photo album can be your very good friend, keeping all your memories stored in it and allowing you to wander in thoughts whenever you want to. So go open your photo album, I am sure you will find it interesting to remember your past life.
Now I’ll bid you all good bye as I look at the pictures of my 13-year-old life.
Oh, look! That’s the picture when I first came second in my class, heh.
