Whatever we might want to do with our past,
we certainly do not want to forget the lovely memories. I am one of those, and
not the only one, who wants to discover the whereabouts of my school friends
through any means. Although I changed 6 schools due to my father's transferable
job, I loved the friends I made in all those schools, the last one being Loreto
Convent, Ranchi. Today, I got a call from my batch mate of my final year in
school and I am still on a high.
Do I want to change this and "move on”
certainly not. I like the fact that we can reconnect with old connections and
take off from where we left off all those years ago, difficult to have the same
bonds later in life.
But it makes me think that life is to be
experienced. Emotions have to be experienced. Of course, all the principles of
life and happiness must be observed. But there is joy in experiencing love,
bonding, caring and sharing and with these, some not so happy emotions as well.
After all, we live in a black and white world where experiencing only the
shades of grey in the name of balance might become a tad boring, isn't it?
So, live life to the fullest as long as you
are not doing so by causing someone else pain or grief. And go with your heart.
