Being Brazen tagged everybody who reads her blog to post a picture of themselves from their youthful days.
I was nearly too chicken. I value my anonymity here. But I decided to put up a picture for one day. I tag anyone else brave enough to do it too.
I have only a few blurrily scanned photos of my youth.
Here is one. I feel like I am appearing nekkid in front of the world right now:
I think I am about 10 or 11 here. It was somebody's birthday party and I was busy stuffing myself with sweets.
The person I could not quite edit out of the photo is my brother. This photo really does portray the Wonder Years then, seeing as he is now dead.
I really don't feel sad any more when I see pictures of him. We may have had some terrible times, but most of my photos of him portray happy times, and these are the best memories to have in the end. The only ones worth dwelling on. Judging from the rest of the photo, this was a happy day.
My look seems to be one of both amused bemusement and suspicion. Which is much like how I still view the world today.
At least some things have not changed then.
