Times Have Changed!


Times have changed, so have the rules of love, dating, and relationships. It’s all about swiping right when a photograph catches our fancy, prolonged chats to know whether our interests match – It was raining and with my cup of tea, I was reading an article, it took me back in time and to lovely memories!

The charm of older times – falling in awe of someone over a cup of tea, or a glass of water is all gone. I remember in college, during college fests – admiring someone for his pink shirt – sheepishly discussing his smile with friends and then making a big deal if he came and said hi, we have still been in touch!

Your note reminds me of all good times – the boy who only called out the colors that I was wearing during a tip tipi top game in school, or another one that I liked to go to the water cooler with for period breaks in school.

This charm of falling in love over a little smile, a small conversation, a discussion with friends is forgotten these days! All we do is digitally bombard our thoughts, likes, and dislikes.

It wasn’t even anything to do with having relationships, but to just enjoy that moment of appreciation, when someone came said I love you and ran away never to meet again.

It was a glass of water and a capsule that made two friends meet, a cup of chai – all that it took for two people to get married and rest well is history!

Am I where I was meant to be? No, let’s rephrase that question: Am I where others thought I would be? How does it matter what others think, but when they tell you that they never thought you would be doing this now and here, you begin to wonder – where did they think I would be?How strange that all those different pictures are of me! How did I morph into so many things at the same time and none of them at all?How come I ended up doing everything I was not meant to? And yet, it never occurs to me till someone points it out to me... Of course, we rarely live our lives that way we thought we would as kids. What did you want to be when you were a child? What did others think you would be? Are you there?

Life is a Celebration

Do I agree with the above statement? Is my life a celebration? Will I like it to be one? Well, the choice is entirely mine. When I was given this life I was asked to enjoy myself but somewhere along the line I enjoyed, I became too serious about ‘living’ life and this seriousness now is not letting me live my life. I have forgotten what celebration is all about. Let me start with my basics, how do I feel about myself? Am I happy with my lifestyle? Am I progressing along the lines that I desire ?! do I have a valid reason to celebrate life? Do I feel unhappy, unfulfilled, powerless, or lonely? Whatever be the situation, it's enough, some pages of few books that I conversed with told me this - YOU MUST REMEMBER THAT YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE BY CHANGING THE CHOICES YOU MAKE IN LIFE. The moment you make up your life as a celebration, new choices will appear in front of you, which will help you manifest your new reality. Finally, it is your choice whether you want to make your life j...
