how time changes us

After skipping  my lunch for the 4th time in  the week... I stood at the streetside near the shops.. I could feel the cool breeze and soon.. a few drops along with a loud thunder which announced that the rainy season was here..I saw the labourers and the truck drivers.. and how the rain disrupted their meal.. but I didn't feel sympathetic  for them..
 for the first time.. I wanted to be them.. they didn't had to be corrupted for their job, they had no EMI's to pay and they had plenty of time to spend with their family..

Having lots of cars, a jacuzzi and a mansion is indeed a luxury but spending time with ur family and cousins, sharing gossip and finding comfort within oneself are few luxuries  that sometimes The richest can't  afford...

Maybe to the other people.. I may sound ridiculous... but when you are in early 30's u think u  have  numerous  major achievements and that maybe true.. studying  in the top institutions of the country, cleared the entrance with top 10 all India rank,  extremely  ambitious and work oriented.
But when u look back u see the people who used to be ur closest.. The people  who u used to have lunch with before u suddenly  changed  and became extremely ambitious

" Very few people  can be extremely  ambitious and down to earth at the same time "

going to school on a holiday

my dream school

On a hot sunny MAY morning, Alex sat lazily on the bed thinking to do something interesting as he couldn't hang out with his frnds Because of the lockdown, his mother called for him-" ALEX, ALEX COME HERE! I GOT SOMETHING U COULD HELP ME WITH..." Alex sighed nd grunted nd made faces with disgust as it was the 8th time his mom had called for him , but his mother had raised a gentleman, he had to go to his motherAs soon as he went to her , he was asked to keep few boxes in the attic nd being the gentleman he is.. he did so After keeping the heavy boxes, he sat down on the dusty floor of the attic to catch his breath, as he cooled down, his eyes landed upon a box, really a coated in dust, around 25-30 years old.He wanted to ignore it but his curiousity took over him, he hurried over to it nd grabbed it.. wanting to open it but... Unable to. There was a fragile lock.. which immediately opened with a slight Tap of a hammerAs he opened the box , a note laid there.. with the words-"TO WHOEVER WHO HVE FOUND IT, KEEP IT SAFE, IT'S PRECIOUS..As he read those... His eyes counted the number of letters nd there were a total of 360 letters...As he read the 1st letter, his brain was jumbled ! The person seemed to be anonymous, but the person writting this letter kept referring the other person as 'MI AMOR' 'CARINÕ' 'TE AMO'He couldn't understand, what were these words? He was so perplexed. He couldn't think of anyone to ask but his mother. He went to his mother and asked her she said-" Oh these letters!? , It seems like these belonged to ur grandmother. As being a modern teenager, we went up to none other than goggle and started translating the words and decoding them. As he read themHe could think so one possibility, but he needed confirmation he went up to the internet and searched where Granda was, after a few bufferings oh! There it was, it was in Spain?? And soon he realised that these letters were written by his grandfather to his grandmother. OH! Such a gentleman he was! His grandfather.... Alex had always thought of such lowly of him, because he was told that his grandfather had ran away with all their money and property papers but in reality it was a lie, he was being lied to by his mother nd father, the truth was his grandmother had given the money because he needed money because he was building a house, for them... The next thing was him storming up to his mother confronting her and looking the amount of hate her son had for them she knelt and apologized but he couldn't forgive her.
