As a kid, we always were in a hurry to grow up, work, and be
independent but when we grow up, we so wished to be a child again. This is the
perfect example of the proverb, “Grass on the other side is always greener”
Going through a rather rough adolescence where you weren’t
sure what you wanted and later realizing that where you are now in your life is
not where you wanted to be?... I’m sure many might have got this thought in
their life. Growing up, we tend to miss that small happiness, those worry-free
moments where the only thing you had to worry about was your homework, when
playtime was more than work time, not missing your favourite cartoon shows like
Pokémon, Swat Kats, Dexter’s Laboratory, Powerpuff Girls to name a few. Oh. The
only tension we as kids had days was to decide which cartoon to watch as we
were spoilt for choice as kids with options in channels like Cartoon Network,
Nick, Pogo, Animax, Jetix, Disney, and so forth...
That was after reaching back home, but what about the school
where we spent most of our childhood?. Those mischiefs we did in class, those
punishments of standing outside the class and saying that You were the most
OUTSTANDING Student in class... Leaving your shoes outside the computer lab
thinking that germs from your shoes will enter the computers and cause a virus
attack?? That one teacher’s class we
always loved to attend. Those PET classes were more fun than the usual classes.
Life was so easy then yet, we wanted to grow up and do a lot of things.
Fast forward for 10 years on from school life. For those who
have reached their goals, well done... For those who haven’t. As they say, take
a chill pill. You aren’t alone and for that matter, you are part of the
majority. So, here we are battling various emotions among ourselves, trying to
survive and wishing we were kids again so that we rectify our mistakes but life
doesn’t work that way, we must try to keep the past aside and concentrate on
what’s in store. Let the Dead Past Bury it’s Dead Yes, Things are tough or
they look tough rather, Beauty lies in eyes of beholder, so is the toughness of a
situation and Tough times don’t last. Tough people Do
