Today I was having a conversation with one of my friends on whatsapp. Now a days most of our conversations happen online only and as you all know, gone are the days when we had face to face conversations, during the conversation the topic diverted to memories and college life and how people change. It has been a few years since I stopped publishing the posts and thought of starting it again with this topic "Memories".
For each of us, there will be some moments that we treasure and which holds a prominent position in our hearts. Also there will be certain incidents which we don't want to look back at and also some embarrassing incidents that might have happened during our child hood or teen age.
When we look back at these incidents or the so called memories, the effect it has on our mind may be entirely different from what it was during that incident. We might laugh at incidents which was embarrassing to us when it actually happened. Also the incidents which made us laugh to floor may bring tears to us when we remember it after a few years.
Years passes by, people change, every one gets busy with their work, they may not get time to contact or they even forget those guys without whom they once thought their life will be meaningless. But it so happens that at some time there may be an incident or something that we see which takes us back to those golden era, may be an old photograph with the friends or an autograph.
When we are all teenagers, we all dream of growing up quickly and getting a job so that we can get out of the burden of studies and the questioning of our parents. Once we grow old, get a job of our wish, get 5 digit salaries, own a car, then only we realize that life was much better and easier when we had nothing in our pockets. The only thing we had to worry about was the exam results and scolding of our parents and nothing else. We will cherish the moments we had at tea stalls with friends, the small quarrels we had over silly things, making fun of each other, looking at each other in exam hall when we see the question paper. Waiting outside the exam hall for friends and thinking what the hell is he writing till now...is he gonna pass ? We cherish all these moments with our friends and these memories are priceless. We won't get the memories by working hard or earning too much. While working hard we have to find some time that we can spent with our family and friends which when we look back at an old age will give us some happiness. We will be working hard for our company wasting more hours of our youth inside the office than with family or friends, but once our health deteriorates the company won't be bothered about us. They can hire another young person giving him much lesser salary and he may be able to offer more productive hours as well.
Always find time for your family and friends in your busy schedule, they will be the only ones who will be there for you when you are in trouble or need any help.
As Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam quoted "Sometimes its better to bunk a class and enjoy with friends, because today when I look back, marks never make me laugh but memories do !!"
