During my schooling , chewing gum is a bad habit. Even I thought the same and I did not do that till my standard IX. After that I used to chew gum, create bubble and chew, chew and chew. I used to have center fresh all days to my college, but I never had chewed gum at home. I had a thought that my parents will feel bad, so I used to spit it before I reach home. It's just a matter of gum but felt good that I do not do that at home. This small thing gave me real happiness.
But now, I go for a Team party, I drink, I dance, I scream in the name of Lifestyle, I shout in the name of IT culture. I get tired and I go back to my place and sleep.
This gives me happiness, but makes me feel "Why things got Changed?"
I used to complete all my works faster on Fridays and I wait to see "Rangoli" in Doordharshan. Friday was always a special day waiting for new songs to be telecasted.
I wait and watch "Surabhi" . And I love to watch the hosts "Renuka Sahane & Siddarth Kak". I used to wait for hours to see these programs. That wait was irritating but gave the real happiness after watching the program.
But now, I search for these programs in Youtube, I search for Renuka Sahane's image in Google. Watch the uploaded video of "Malgudi Days"...
This gives me happiness, but makes me feel "Why things got Changed?"
Sharing money to get a cricket ball for Rs.10/- with 8 cricket team members. Playing in the hot sun till we get tired. Playing bet matches with other teams in locale.Winning/Losing gave the real happiness.
Bunking classes during under graduation and playing Table Tennis with Nishi for hours. These things gave the real happiness.
But now, I play cricket free online. I download "Brian Lara Cricket" and play cricket using laptop. I play games online and may be Nishi plays with his PSP.
This gives me happiness, but makes me feel "Why things got Changed?"
I used to throw the candy or chocolate high up in the air and catch it in my mouth. I used to do this trick in order to attract few girls in my school. When the girls have a glance at me, I felt the real happiness.
But now, I do the same trick with my tablets and capsules. By doing this I still give life to my trick.
This gives me happiness, but makes me feel "Why things got Changed?"
I used to wait for hours with my gang of friends, just opposite to an Ice Cream Parlor. We used to wait standing there for hours with our friend and he waits for his girl friend. That is the only place where he can see his girl pass by him without any disturbances. When the girl looks at my friend and gives a small smile while passing by , we all go mad and jump. We had the real happiness and even we celebrate for that small smile. Long wait was never considered at all.
But now, my friend calls me for a treat. I go there and I see him with a girl. He introduces the girl as his lover. We wait for hours to get a table in the restaurant. We three eat, we three chat , we three celebrate and no one else.
This gives me happiness, but makes me feel "Why things got Changed?"
I used to wait for days to receive the audio cassette, which I had already given for recording my favorite songs. After the wait for days, I used to play the songs from my audio cassette. This gave me the real happiness
I used to wait for my turn in the Browsing Center. I pay Rs.30/- for an hour of usage. I created my first mail Id with the help of Nishi and we used the internet till the last Rs.1/- balance. This gave me a real happiness.
But now, I download the songs and listen to them immediately. Internet connectivity is available all the time and I browse for hours and hours.
This gives me happiness, but makes me feel "Why things got Changed?"
I used to spend lot of time in selecting the B'day greeting card for my beloved ones.
I used to spend lot of time in writing letters to my friend in a post card or in a Inland Letter. I used to spend lot of time talking to my friends in front of my house for hours.. I spent lot of time but this gave me real happiness.
But now, I send e-card and e-mails without spending much time for selection.
I used to chat and express our thoughts with my friends by chat/messenger.
This gives me happiness, but makes me feel "Why things got Changed?"
When I turn back after this question I could see my best friend "Mr.Inner Sense" waiting besides me to say and make me realize that
"The only permanent thing in this world is the CHANGE".
