School Days

Recently I had a meet with few of my school friends along with the college ones. I am lucky to have these friends on the life path. The occasion was a friendship day, we where smiling and laughing about the incidents of our school days. After a long chat about school memories we had our dinner and left the place. At the journey towards my home I was wondering how things had changed since the school days. Few of the school colleges made me realized that I had changed. It’s not only me but all of us had changed.

Whenever we meet we share the different occasions of the school years, which we enjoyed our life the most. I don’t remember any such good incidents happened after those days. After our higher school we left to different directions to pursue our graduation and post graduation. Later to that jobs had discarded us. But once in a blue moon we meet and we stand at the same place where we left the last conversation, it’s amazing that friends has the same co-ordination thought out the life

Maturity and age cover over the mischiefs of the childish attitudes. This is the place where change takes place how I was in my school days and how I am right now. It’s a astronomical change in myself. I was really happy those days rather I was poor in my studies. I never use to get good grades but after a slight depression I use to be happy playing.

I was least bother about studies I use to enjoy myself. Chattering with the friend, planning for being together. I never had an ambition of being someone or which direction I will follow; I had followed what I got. I never though or planned for future. But the current me is exactly the opposite I am planning for future I have desires I am not satisfied with what I have. What had made me such a demanding person? Is this the legacy of competition? Had I started competing some thing or some one? I had become ambitious.

Might be our ambitions are not allowing us to be happy. Our desires, dreams and wants are surging us in the dysphoric trench. I agree that ambitions are for our growth towards success. But with the ambition we are not living happily its worthless. So instead of living for ambition keep an ambition of living happily might be an ultimate solution.
