“Life” the word is very small but for someone or should i say a lot of people it means a lot. From my experience which is not that vast, i can say that “Life” is more about the journeys you take if not all. It is least about what you achieve, that is what I believe.
I don’t know, I may be sounding a bit serious about life and stuff, but this being my first blog, I have no idea of how to start it. But what i am going to do from this point onwards is that i will try and be as free flowing a a white-water rapids that come down the mountains. so you guys better keep up.
I am going to mention certain experiences which have taught me a lot about life and mistakes i have made and also a few things that i have done correct.
The First of these experiences i would like to share is a bit sad and depressing, but again that is a part of my life, and though it hurts a lot when i am trying to recall these bad memories, but i would like to experience the pain one last time, before i let it all go.
This is about the time, when i started my new journey in the world, it was the time when everything was new to me. i had taken a very bold decision of doing my Engineering studies while i stayed in a hostel, away from home. We were 4 room-mates living in the Room No.4 on the ground floor in Sector no.1 of the Vishwaganga Boys hostel. We had to trust each other as we had the seniors to throw us around, we stuck together and we did make it through. So eventually we all had a bond that we shared. But i guess that wasn’t enough. We lived through the first year, but the second part of it wasn’t the time i would like to revisit.
Lastly we gave our finals, and went home thinking that people would change once they become mature, but i had no idea of what was in-store for me. When i joined in the second year on the first day itself i had realized that the so-called friends i had trusted turned out the back-stabbers the seniors had warned about. I mean i dont understand why do people in my case back-stab anyone, i mean if you dont like the company, if you are not happy you could like tell me at ones face or atleast have the courtesy to do so personally.
i mean it wasnt one friend who did the same, it was the whole damn group whom i had trusted blindly, helped out without expecting anything, and this is how they repay me. i mean c’mon how unworthy of my friendship were they.
i had lost the complete faith from friendship. i lived by a motto “DTA- Dont Trust Anybody”, i started to mind my own business, kept everything to myself, and i had basically shut my self off from the rest of the world, i had started to become selfish, and i realized that this wasnt me at all. But had to do this coz this is the only way i found peace for myself, atleast now theres nobody who could hurt me except me.
I had lost hope that anything good would come out of this. But i was proved wrong immediately. I found a group of friends which i know will last for a lifetime. Everyone one of us was hurt in some way or the other, so we all took time in trusting each other right away, but the patience payed off.
To cut the long story short, by the end of the 4 years, we all could look back and say “It was good that you stabbed us in our backs, coz that made us look out for each other, it was good that you broke our trust, coz that made each of us trustworthy, it was good that you left us alone, coz wen we were alone we found our strengths and weaknesses, it was good that you left us, coz we found each other”.
At the end of 4 years, we all were successful at whatever we did, you name it , we did it, from academics to sports we had a footprint from mechanical to computers. There was nothing that we could ever never do.
What i like about it the most is that we still are and will be together.
