How one year can change everything!

Last year this time, I was staring down at my broken iPhone. It was one of the darkest days of my life and the most shameful one.

I have regretted that moment every single day since that. Life has a funny way of coming forward in front of you.

I was having the time of my college life with my friends along with stable academic performances. All in all, it was good!

Fast forward one year and a new phone later, it's different. Good different or bad different is still not clear.

The suggestion for this topic was put forth by my batch mate and fellow writer Palak Katyal. So a shout out to her for giving me something to write on.

A year is a long time. People can get married, people can have kids, people can die or more so, people can be lonely. The last one sucks the most because it is by far the worst feeling in the world. If you have ever been lonely you would understand.

I was under the impression that the good times were meant to last. However, my friend, they don't. They did not for me. If they do for you, you are one lucky soul. There are some things which even words cannot explain.

This year, it sucked to bid adieu to the ones who had meant so much to me, but, such is life.

Good times don't last. Good people do.

Write that in stone!

Brotherhood

I miss them. Oh fuck I miss them a lot. I don't say this quite often, but, in my head, I have this thought lingering at all times. Is it bad? I do not know. Is it good, hell no!

The people in case are the ones who have shaped me to be what I am today. College would not have been fun without you guys. It's a fact.

Not only were there good moments, there were memorable moments. What makes the moments memorable are the people who are in it.

One was a football fanatic.
One was a pain in the ass.
One was a laziness accomplice.
One was a learner.
One was a roommate.
One was a confidante.

But all of them were brothers.

People go their own separate ways but each of them left a mark on me as they left. I got a chance to learn so much from them that 4 years of being together turned out to be too less of a time.

Now, I cannot bring those moments back but being a part of their life and the fact that they shared so much with me cannot be overlooked or understated.

The only thing left in these 3 months of college is reminiscing those moments and creating a few more with the one's left here.

I've written many times about change being the only constant.
I don't like this change.
Time travel anyone?
