Childhood is the most important age of life, is the age of learning and develop as a person. In this years you start determining what kind of person you are psychologically and what kind of personality you will have. Various factors in this age are so important and can affect to your formation and future. Factors like your surround, your family, the place where you are... For one moment, imagine that you pass your childhood in a poor and demolished village. Without money, with only a little bit of food, and you don’t have the chance or the way to left this poverty. This is the kind of childhood that will have these three boys.

​

In the image, we can see, at the front of the image, a little boy carrying a big yellow barrel running away from two other boys. They look a little bit younger than the first boy in an old grey shirt. It seems that the last boy is the youngest of the three. They can be three brothers prefectly. The first boy seems focused and the other boys seem happy, or having fun, the second boy is puting a big smile and the third is puting a happy face. It seems that they are in a race. The three boys are carrying this yellow barrels, and because of the way that they do it, it seems they do it often, This barrels are maybe full of water, and they are carrying this water to his home. On his left we can see one woman or girl in a Hiyab, so we can think that is an Arabic country. The small buildings around the boys are made of old bricks, the floor is not pavement, and it seems made of stone. At the back of the boys, we can see a strange green care, little and with only one wheel at the front. And behind him, small houses.

 

Maybe this three boys haven’t money, they don’t have the ideal surround, and they can’t left poverty. But if you look at his faces, they are smiling, they are having fun. Childhood don’t know about poverty and critical situations. These three boys, living in poverty, have forces to run a race, and having fun, perhaps all. That means that childhood has no limits.
