To change is to stay the same



“By what right do I say the things I say? Who taught me? Why do I do it? For all these questions the answer is you and me. I took the liberty to say the things I say and you allowed it to reach you. You taught me everything and you have no idea about it. I do it because this is the only way I can freely tell you that I have learned from you. But if you ask me am I right? My answer will be I have no idea.”

To start over from the beginning, wake up from a slumber and find that we have no idea of the people around us was the thought which made me write this. I have seen too many movies with this idea; still this thought intrigues me a lot. If I happen to lose my memory till date wonder how my friends will react. Will I make the same friends again? What will my parents think? Will I make the same mistakes? Would I choose engineering? What kind person will I be? Will I change?? 

I think I will change. If I look back in my life certain moments that happened in it makes me what I am today. That maths teacher I had in my first standard who taught me the ‘borrowing system’ and told my class that she is not afraid even if your father is a policeman. That fourth class teacher who gave a funny look at me when I put my name for the dance competition and the same teacher who gave ‘I knew you don’t have it in you’ look when I chickened out of the competition without even putting an effort. The friend who told ‘come let’s eat together’ for the first time even when he knew I spent my lunch break with my sister. When the result was late to deliver the dream I had that I had been detained. The teacher who showed me that I was good in maths. The numerous radios I broke, the small adapters I opened, the screw driver cuts I had when opening something tight. The friend who was with me through everything. The friend I never had. The enemies I never made. The friend I lost for no reason at all. These people small or very large make me what I am today. If I had to start over, I won’t have them to teach me those small things which make me the person I show off today. It is a bitter place we’re living today. I won’t get the same people under the same circumstances again; I will hate the people I love now if I get a bad experience with them. I am sure I am not going to wake up one day and have no memory of the people around me. To start over with no memory of anything maybe a good idea for fiction but in reality to be a different person with different experiences will have no difference in you. You will want to start over again. Every moment in our life that happened to date has left an impact in the person you are. You can’t change what you have become though there may be a chance to change in future. Do something good in your change. But I do not want any change in the life I am having now. Change is happening every day I don’t want a sudden one. Yesterday is not like today. Today is a whole lot different from tomorrow.

Live Life!
