Miniature Humans


Miniature Humans


 I have a brother named Koko. He’s a year and five months old. He is cute, chubby, playful, naughty and charismatic to people, which I know is quite common to babies. Most people are fond of babies. I wonder why babies have this sort of magnetic pull to people. Like for me, aside from my brother, I love seeing little babies; by the way my village have loads of them. They are so tantalizing that I want to cuddle them like teddy bears. Like in a famous line in “Despicable Me,” They’re so fluffy I’m gonna die!

We all know that babies can’t talk clearly yet. They do mumble and repeated one-line sounds. My mother, as I’ve observed, interprets these baby talks to common phrases. For me to understand my brother, I myself too is doing the same thing now. What if we have the wrong interpretations? In my experience, it will result to ear-busting cries. I feel pity for babies. I’ve seen some, because of their loud cries, get spanked. It’s true babies can’t speak clearly but they have non-verbal gestures and it’s called reflex. All we need are minds for understanding.

One more thing I observed is that people would say “ok lang, bata pa yan, ‘di pa nakakaintindi.” Yes, it’s true they’re babies physically but their minds have the ability to absorb things though they understand it or not. You wouldn’t know these babies will store things in their head and probably will store some forever. I may say babies are living humans in miniature form.

Babies have their sense too. How the way they are formed is just great. They may be a feeding to society but they may also be playing a definite role for us. I don’t know anything about them so I was like baby, "baby, baby ooooohhh!" Babies have their own worlds. They remain mysterious to me.
