From “Sumthing got lost” to “I lost it”…

This would have been happening since time immemorial. People meet, spend some nice time together, priorities change, choose different directions and they move apart. What’s d big deal in this!!! This is how life is… It teaches us lessons in its own manner… simple lessons easy to preach yet so difficult to follow in ones own life…

There are standards which every person sets for himself, to which he abides by during his tenure on dis planet. The situations which are objectionable to him are mostly “these set standards + 1”, but one question which has emerged in my mind off late is why they should be considered obnoxious; probably they are the “set standards” of some other individual. Like u have, even others have this democratic right to set standards and moralize the world accordingly.

From “Sumthing got lost” to “I lost it”…we have covered a long long distance. In this journey, we have met many people, some distant some still close. From childhood excitement to teen age flashes to being an Adult, we have gained and lost many things. The cost benefit statement of life would better show the net gain/loss in the dealings of past 24 years.

Since when have we not thought about how people around would think about me if I do this or that? Since when have we moved out without having more than 20-30 rs in the pocket? Since when have we asked for the pocket money from our parents? Since when did we feel the need of taking a break and going for a vacation when life itself used to be a vacation? Since when have we wandered aimlessly on roads? Since when have we heard birds chirping and water flowing? Since when have we called sumone just to say…”hi” …

Lost in this big big world of bondages, set systems, rules, moral lessons… lets unlearn some of our set paradigms…lets think about ppl who made us wat v are 2day…lets remember all those names who hve brought us dis far…coz "u" wudn’t have been "u" & "me" wudn’t have been "me"… if "they" were not there… 

Let’s relive dese moments today; so that we don’t totally agree to dese lyrics of 3 idiots which say … “I wanna grow up once again…”
