Life's like that!

Memories light the corner of my mind, misty water colored memories of the way we were.....

The words of the song sung by the beautiful talented, Barbara Streisand, takes me back to all my young days, carefree, leaving all my worries and hassles to my Mum and Dad, with not a care in the world. Beautiful school days .. a phase of my life, Happy,Innocent, Secrets that only your best friend and you shared(So, you thought) little realising that the whole class too was part of it...touching. College was another phase of my life, where life was beautiful, friends, movies, lunches, shopping, street food..and of course the fabulous group of girls that made it soooo special, loved every moment of my life in college..loved to dress, and had fun in class, as we all know there is always a "funny guy" who makes those sleepy lectures less sleepy..The lecturer whom everyone dreaded and hoped he could not make it for the lecture...hopes broken, and there he was with his huge file, and test papers. 9 to 5... that was the working phase of my life and the kind person that I am ,,, enjoyed it..had a huge, huge circle of friends, only these friends were at different places, my train travel had a group the nine o clock friends, my evening travel had a group the six O'Clock ladies special, and of course the office staff, which were a beautiful group of people, some married like me, some younger and having their fun, some grandparents, each contributing to making it a mature and happy extended family, the picnics, the lunches, the opening of our lunch dabba was a moment we all used to look forward to, surprises and disappointment too! "Oh goodness, mum promised me chops, but its not," was the cry of the young lady, and then we would all contribute in making her happy.. Finally the Homemakers' phase..this is an experience that one must go thru to have that real happiness in their lives, where one gives up a little(Just for a short while) to gain a lot, as in the growth of your children, emotional, physical, spiritual and every which way in just being a beautiful person inside out.To see the smiles on the faces of the family, means the world to me and yes, they too realise that life is an echo it all comes back to you...life is beautiful and I am lovin it.
