With only one more exam to go to finish my 2nd year, a reel of incidents flashed in front of my eyes.As my friend and i were walking down the road, i told her " have you noticed its been 2 years"...she said "yeah" as we continued walking. She then said "I remember the first time i saw you in 8th standard,you were this geeky looking girl"..i smiled and she continued "look at you now..you are not the same girl whom i met!"...i looked at her and said "you know, its the time..we change with time..time changes us"...Listening to my 'words of wisdom' she stared at me for a moment and said "hmmm..yeah maybe..we all change with time..and i guess its for good".
That last line of hers 'i guess its for good' hit my grey cells so hard that i was lost in chain of thoughts..i could hear my own voice going in my head saying,
"its for good??maybe it is..or maybe not..maybe its for bad..i have lost my innocence with time and it has done no good to me or the people around..i was happy with my innocence..today i crave for more..i ask for more than what i got yesterday...but then with everyday passing i learn a new thing..i getup in the morning and am a new person today..the mistake i have committed today i would not commit tomorrow..a new day and i meet new people..the people i have met yesterday will be a page in my past and i carry it forward...its like i move on with time..and its not by choice...an incident which has left a profound impact on me few days back say something like a birth,a death or probably just a small conversation with a friend, will remain just as a memory for me today...Wasn't it just yesterday that i thought i have whole of 3 years before i finish my graduation...then why is it just 1 more year today??what is this illusion called?? is it me?? or is it the time??"
My flow of thoughts broke when an auto guy stopped his auto in front of us and asked "kahan jaana madam?"...i looked around for my friend and said "Saleem Nagar"....We got into the auto and spoke about the movie that released last week...
