Hello Community

Describe what you see.

In the image, you can see two children playing together in a very natural game.

Describe what you feel.

I feel nostalgic, sometimes it seems very nostalgic, when I see two children playing this way. In my childhood, we did play, but not this type of game like hitting each other with pillows and laughing a lot.

Write a story or a poem about what you think is happening.

Abraham and Jesus are in the privacy of their room. It seems they have been ordered to stay in their room because there are adult visitors at home, and they can no longer be there due to the conversations they are having. "It's better for the children not to be present," says their father.

At first, the children were upset because it wasn't time to sleep yet. They wanted to be out there, intervening in matters that were not yet their concern, even though their parents gave them freedom to express themselves on topics discussed among themselves. They understood that this was not the case, nor was it the time to stay there. Only their parents can give their opinion.

They walked around the room, jumped, talked, and there came a time when the youngest, Jesus, grabbed his favorite pillow and, out of boredom, threw pillows at his older brother, Abraham. Thus began the party where these children, unaware that they are building a neural network inside themselves, figuring out how to avoid boredom, without hurting themselves, and laughing a lot.

At first, they did it silently, with low-pitched smiles, but then the distraction became so great that the laughter echoed through the walls of the room, a laughter so contagious that the adults looked to see what was causing them to laugh so much that even they were infected. They ended up grabbing small pillows and started throwing them at each other. Seeing this, the children shared a moment of relaxation the adults had in their adult conversation that no child could hear.
