Childhood Shoes
__ Childhood Shoes _________
You have done your hard work,
and have paid your dues
it’s time to enjoy things,
bring back those childhood shoes
the innocence, the energy, the curiosity,
being mischievous without having clues
passing years gifted wisdom in return,
made life richer, added vital hues
forget the blues, do not snooze,
put on the shoes and let yourself loose
Its time, bring back those childhood shoes!
seeing
We are so eager, anxious to make ‘sense’ of things, to understand, to decide, to act on them, to talk about them, to feel about them….. we simply skip to see observe things as they are…
timepass
माणूस जन्माला येतो. माणूस मरतो. मधल्या काळात प्रत्येकाने आप-आपला timepass शोधलेला असतो.
Work
What is it, which when I am doing, makes me forget to eat, to sleep.. forget the rest of the world?
Sachin Tendulkar
Some people, at the dawn of their lives, knew exactly what they wanted to do for their entire life. They dived into it, and lived a life at entirely different level altogether. It must be a magical experience.
Now, for most of us, we don’t know that early in life about what exactly it is that we want to do for rest of our lives. What is it, which when I am doing, makes me forget to eat, to sleep.., forget the rest of the world. But in no way it means we should not keep looking. In fact, we must keep looking for it, whatever time and efforts it takes. For that, even if we find it in relatively later part of our lives, and even if we get to live few years like they did, it would be fascinating experience. Let’s keep looking till we find it.
It would be worth it.
