What did you do as a child that you feel guilty about even to this day?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

While growing up, my family raised baby chickens, correct term ‘chicks’<\/strong><\/em> in our backyard at my hometown in Malaysia. I was 5 or 6 years old when I started adoring chicks<\/em>. I played endlessly and sometimes refuse to eat my meals unless the chicks<\/em> ate with me as well. I know it sounds weird, but I was so young at that time *blush*.<\/p>\n

One morning, my dad took me to the local supermarket to get some meat from our butcher. I was so excited when we arrived. I saw chicks<\/em> are sold in the market as well. But I was more intrigued with the variety of colors on the furry feathers of the chicks<\/em>. I was so anxious to own all of them. Heck, dad had to buy for me. I got them home and immediately try to get the colored chicks<\/em> acquainted with the dull ones.<\/p>\n

Over few days, it became a dull routine playing the same games with the baby chicks<\/em>. So, I cooked up a strange idea (don’t forget, I was only 5 years old at that time), and decided to bury the baby chicks<\/em> in the ground. I only bury till it’s neck, meaning the baby chicks<\/em> head were sticking out on the ground. And I continued playing with the baby chicks<\/em> till my mom came and rescued them, the same day, not to worry. At that time, I thought they looked so adorable with colorful fur and beak, pecking away in the afternoon dust. Now, whenever I see a baby chick<\/em>, I feel so guilty of what I did when I was a child. I wish I could turn back the time. Please forgive me baby chicks<\/em>. I have repent from my mistakes.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
