Another sluggish day of my holidays had started and i was pleased to cuddle up again.But then my mum started reminding me what my future mother in law would complain about me being reckless , irresponsible blah blah.I thought i ‘d better get up before my mum starts actually behaving like my mother in law.She made me run with her to a grinding shop ,not exactly a shop, the grinding equipment is installed in their house only.It was eleven in the morning ,their house though not so posh was strangely calm.There was open space with garden not so trimmed and sunlight was gracefully dancing at few places.Women of the household had gathered at one place and were preparing traditional Indian papads.They were tattling about various things and laughing gently at some private joke which i was not supposed to hear pst pst pst. .Then i realized that this is the beauty of our country “sense of togetherness” .The best part about us is we seem to be simple and friendly.Well, after spending some time,feeling happy about our people i had to come to terms with reality.
Later in noon I found myself in a cradle ceremony,it was a decent event at my relations place.I was acting clumsily and was gaping at people.I then realised what i was doing when my relative complimented for my blank expression! I happened to meet my uncle.I dint get to speak much as my mum had begun the innings!He used to be a cool guy but now he had become pensive looking.His life was not the way he wanted . I realized that people dream of conquering the world in their childhood but when they interact with outside world they crush their dreams beneath their foot! That's the reason for the frustration ,before they start chasing their dreams they are forced to be responsible.If they stop being responsible and start enjoying their life ,they are opposed.They just finally reconcile and find solace in compromise.After decades they realise that they should have been a bit a bold enough to say No!, for things they dint want in their life.Well all we can do is hope that it does not happen with us (typical Indian style right ).Only constant perseverance combined with efforts will help us go places in our lives!
