We are made of memories; our memories make us special and different from other human beings. Often, we will think back to our childhood and remember an experience we had when we were young or a special person we knew or met.
Please think back to one of your childhood memories that stays in your mind and share it with us. It can be a happy memory, or a sad one, or a magical memory or an exciting memory. Try to describe in detail what you remember; write about the type of child you were, what you were like. Write fully about the memory as if you could draw a picture so that we could see it, too, with our eyes. Why is this particular memory so important to you? How does it make you feel now?
If you can, write about the earliest memory you can remember. You can start your essay with the words: I remember…
Writers often use their memories to tell us about their lives and their history. You are a writer, too, so tell us about your memory. That way we will get to know you better.
