Can you recall your very first memory of your life? Do you remember the very first time you actually saw your parents, your siblings, your home and your relatives? Perhaps, you don’t remember these things, but you do remember those moments when you have actually realised that they all exist. You do remember the moment when you felt that you exist in this world and some people do exist in your life. I have some of my earliest memories, but I don’t remember them in the correct chronological order, and I don’t think you either remember your earliest memories in that order too. There are a few dozen such memories which I still remember.
I still remember my first day at school. My parents waited outside the school gate in the car (which was a red Toyota Corolla 1984 something model) and were watching me going inside the school. I was crying, and I still remember the smile on the faces of my parents. I kept crying all the time in the school during the assembly.
I remember that moment when I was sitting on a couch in my old home next to my mother.
I remember that moment when my father talked to my mother about me.
I remember that evening when I, along with my elder sister, visited my maternal grandfather in a hospital before his death.
I remember that day when I was crying in class and then the teacher made me sit in my elder brother’s class along with him.
I remember that night, when during the exhibition in Fortress Stadium we got stuck in a horrible storm.
I remember that moment when one of my uncles shifted to their new home.
I remember that night when my sister got injured in the race course park.
I remember that day when I got injured while running on the roads with my brother in Sialkot.
I remember that moment when I was getting scared of cows in our home, and later I showed affection to them. I also remember when I went to see their newly born calf.
I remember that day when I broke my arm while playing with my sister.
I remember that day when my dad brought the movie "Pakzeezah".
In all these very first memories of my life, I can only recollect those memories that were associated with my family. There are hardly a few of them that are linked with other relatives or any of my friends.
