Life, the topic I wonder the most about. Its one of the things I observe very closely. I feel that accepting changes, that life brings along with it, is one of the important things to live a happy life.
Life always keeps on changing. Sometimes people change their home, their schools and sometimes even their friends. And this is one of the moments when u want "time to stop", as i mentioned earlier in my previous blog.
I am lucky enough..i had a great childhood. Life used to be just too easy and exciting. Every day was like another chapter. Full of wonder and surprises. I had a great friend circle in my first school. And we did all sorts of mischievous activities one can imagine.But then, I moved on to another school in my 9th class. I still remember, many of my friends didn't talk to me on my last day in that school, as i was moving to another school very shortly. I know, they were too upset. It was hard for them as well as for myself to accept the fact that we guys won't be studying together anymore. We guys won't be bunking classes together, won't be passing chits in the exams together, won't be playing football in the interval, together. It wasn't that they didn't do all those things after I went to another school. But I know, I was an important part of their life and so they were mine.
Changing the school wasn't an easy decision for me either. Had u asked me for a wish, I'ud have asked to study in my previous school. But some changes are required. And you have to accept them. Willingly or Unwillingly.And so I accepted, willingly.
I used to have a puppy when i was a kid. We used to play a lot together. I was some 12 yrs old that time. Sometimes he used to wake me up in the morning by jumping over me several times, hehe..And then we used to go together for the morning walk...But One day,i found him sick. We went to the doctor and found that he was actually very sick. Soon he died. I was really broken. He wasn't just a dog. He was my friend as well. This time the change wasn't acceptable..But I did accept, sooner or later. I had too....I don't miss him anymore. But I do laugh when some of his mischiefs occasionally come to my mind.
In my new school, I didn't make many friends like I did in my previous school. I made friends, but selected..very few. It wasn't that I was sad or something because of my school changing. Well, I wasn't the same boy anymore. I had changed, for the outer world atleast. But yes, in my new school as well, I did find good friends. Infact, very good friends. We studied four years together, till class 12th. And then, we guys moved ahead to our respective roads. Life was about to bring another change.
And then I came to the iit kgp, the place people desire to study. Life wasn't the same anymore. Atleast for the first few days. Staying away from the home wasn't something I imagined at all. But, yet again, i had to accept the change.
Soon, I learnt that taking caring of myself wasn't an easy task, which my mom had been doing very well at home ,since my childhood. Here, Ii was alone in an unknown crowd on my own, with a very little experience to deal with it. But soon, the crowd wasn't unknown any more. I made new friends. Infact some of my best friends. And we have been together since last 3 years. And I know, life is about to bring another change very soon. This is the begining of another end, I suppose...
Although I have written so much to convince you that changes are required and must be accepted. Still I can't convince myself on this. Perhaps, I am writing this because of that. But I' m sure..sooner or later..I'll learn to accept the changes that life brings along..willingly or unwillingly.
