Though many are of the view that childhood is the happiest time of a person’s life I do not think we can generalize it is so.

The Superman was supposed to be as fast as a rocket and was supposed to leave a heroic feeling pulsing through your veins. My father and I waited in line for this ride for almost an hour.
