First 5 years just passed unnoticed!! The first day in the memory lane is the day when my grandpa dragged me to school which I used to hate then. Then it became a routine as I got adapted to the new atmosphere. School in the day and rest of time at home, doing pranks and troubling one or the other all the time. I was adamant and relieved when my will was fulfilled. There were days when I used to play cricket in that small portico of my house with a bunch of friends, ruining the painting of house with ball hit marks, breaking off the lights and window panes good enough only to get scoldings. Giving tests each month, writing the exams every year, enjoying the wonderful company of friends - I never realised how I cruised through.
As the years passed on, I was out of school and into pre university college. Entirely different environment! Freedom, new friends, hangouts, girls, Bicycle to Motor Vehicle, Pocket money - Inspite of all this fun, there was a constant pressure of WHAT n HOW for Future, the search for ones own identity started. The answers revealed themselves with the time.
I found myself in a Medical School!!! That too in the Capital City, I never had even dreamt it. Again, a new set of friends, new food, hostel life, loads of books, nobody for immediate care, being ragged by bullies in the hostel and Ghamandi girls of the college! With the challenge of adjustments altogether, it was a torture for initial month but then it was FUN. Drowned in the studies, forgetting all other extra talents, acquiring the new skills; in 5 years, I was a Doctor with a basic Med Degree!!! This was probably the most enthralling and exciting period of my life, those 5 years. But I never knew that more excitement is in wait for me!! The present life in US! For someone who never had imagined it, life shows the path. I am just walking as the light of life is leading me!
Many Many people have come across the path of my life. Many went unnoticed, some selected different paths, less were they who were kicked out. Hardly any of them would be remembered again. I wish good luck to all of them. Few Chose to walk together along and some joining in future to give company. Couple of them are just beside me. I am still waiting to come across that someone who would walk hand in hand, step by step for whole life! For those of you, still in the same road, Thank you so much, you will reach your destination of life safely.
Most of it was a flow of happiness n smile all these 25 years with punctuations of emotional turmoils, angers, frustrations and tears; There lies a constant effort to forget/avoid the punctuations and continue the flow of happiness on in Future!!
I donot know how these 25 years flew, I really thank all those who helped me, accompanied me all the time.
Each year there used to be a cake cut, candles put off, partying and a group of people for company, this year of 2009, I am alone. So just Chill, party alone :-)
Merry Christmas To one and all!!!
Its a Silver Jubilee. 25 years ago, on this very same Christmas day, 25th December, 'I' was born!!! Happy Birthday to me :-)
