Memories!!!!

Never brood over the past; when grief overpowers you, do not recollect similar incidents in your past experience and add to the sum of your grief; recollect, rather, incidents when grief did not knock at your door, but you were happy instead. Draw consolation and strength from such memories and raise yourself above the surging waters of sorrow.

What happens when you recollect incidents related to your school days?

WhenThe school reopened in June, And we settled in our new desks andbenches!

We learnt writing withslates and pencils, andProgressed To fountain pens and ball pens and then Micro tips!

When we chased one another in thecorridors in Intervals, and returned to the classroomsDrenched in sweat!

When we had lunch in classrooms, corridors,Playgrounds,under the trees and even in cycle sheds!

When a single P.T. period in the week's Time Table,Was awaited more eagerly than the monsoons!

When cricket was played with writing pads as bats,And Neckties and socks rolled into balls!

When few played "kabadi" and "Kho-Kho" in scorching sun,While others simply played"book cricket" in theConfines of classroom!

Of fights but no conspiracies,Of Competitions but seldom jealousy!When we used to watch Live Cricket telecast,In the opposite house in Intervals and Lunch breaks!When few rushed at 3:45 to"Conquer" window seats in our School bus!

Days Of Sports Day,and the annual School Day ,And the one-month long preparations for them.
the stressful Quarterly,Half Yearly and Annual Exams, And the mostenjoyed holidays after them!

Gone are the days....But not the memories, which will beLingering in our hearts for ever and ever andEver and ever and ever .....Gone are the Days.... But still there are lot more Days to come in our Life!!

NO MATTER HOW BUSY YOU ARE ,DONT FORGET TOLIVE THE LIFE THAT STILLEXISTS.....
