Beginning with the same old cry; begins the journey called life. I still don’t have any updates on a change in that. So beginning with the cry starts our amazing journey of our life in this planet Earth. Feeding bottles all around to supply all the essentials from A to Z. All a comfortably made artificial setup. This is only just the beginning. Still plenty more stuffs to come on the way.

People running at an enormous pace as if to reach out for something. The people I mean are the parents of the new generation who don’t have time for anything. I doubt there exist parents who see there children only at weekends. They merely have time to spend with there family. Mothers too born in this society on a fashion statement size zero I fear they are hardly feed the new born. This is no surprise; you and me are going to be part of this great society. It is often said “ A child develops his/her character from the family and society in which he grows”. I wonder what a child can learn from the four walls of a room or a well paid substitute for his mother or from a father and mother who is in a busy work schedule. All that his family teaches is how to survive within the four walls of his centralized air conditioned home.

                                                     Now begins the great journeys second part “Schooling”. The child now has become a student. Wake up bells ringing loud indicating the start of a day. I fear there aren’t any more moms who bring a hot cup of coffee to call her child from the sleep. All packed up with stuffs he leaves to school. All the knowledge boosters waiting to fill the student with curriculum in an indigestible form. Learn, learn, learn until you turn insane you come back home. If anyone dares to ask these teachers “What are we learning?” the only reply you can expect “I strictly follow the curriculum and completed today’s portion”. Any educated bitch can do this. I mean is there no one to tell these kids a story. One story that gives the student an outward portrait of life. Isn’t there someone to tell there is a life beyond these text books and the need of sharing and caring with others. No one teaches them. Back to home …home again. No one to ask them “What did you learn today?”. The only communicator at all homes; the one way communicator television. Televisions to computers and more. Staring long hours till their parents get back from work. No one cares for these kids. Everything set in an orderly way meant to be perfect. If it comes to the attention of the parents your child is getting lesser marks there begins the headaches of individual attention classes after school. No time to play; no time to sleep; growing all alone to be tomorrows promising citizens.

No one is there to teach us. Why don’t we learn ourselves?. The great outburst of discovering things begin. Learning from the atmosphere you are put into. Discovering starts from the one way communicator. There begins the individual journey of life. First a glance of everything. Then serious addiction. When you say everything yes the everything of life in front of you. Life depends on what each person receives at each stage of life. When the path of life gets faster things get easily available. Still don’t get the reason why students turn to mass murderers and rapist this is it. Those who are on the safer side pity those who suffer. Time slowly slips away. Some escape some suffer. Life ticking on to the next level.

                                                     The third part of the journey begins “Social Networking”. Now as there is change in the level there is change in characters we portrait. The student gets called as a boy/girl. The growing grudge in them takes to comfortable relationship. They find warmth better than anywhere else. It can start out of anything as simple as a smile or a grown up relationship out of a social networking site. Social Networking sites meant to be guaranteeing relationships are the choice of most. Care that never had been taught to them begins; love for each other everything begins with a split of a second. So strong are these bonds we may think how loving. Growing together seeking the love that they never got begins. Some calls it sacred; some find joy and many more. All different forms in which they exist. Late night talks; saving a bit extra pocket money and discovering desire. Brand names are all around you and you have a constant thought to be highlighted in front of all others. You turn up into every habit that gets called COOL.

 At some point of time let as call it a “time limit” everything that has begun end up in a different way for each person. Broken hearts are the most common. There is sometimes the need for another relation to erase the memories of the previous as for some it never stops. Some being carried away with this relationship promise to be there for ever. For all those who were not part of these sometimes are to be called lucky and sometimes unlucky. Anyway these girls and boys slips to the next level of the great journey. This is when time begins to be counted. Out of all that they learned and only from there short experience they get moved on to a level when they get the first separation.

                                                     The fourth part of the journey “Professionalism”. All that you studied for years becomes a waste when you enter this level. Whatever you are now gets a professional touch. Some become a trained dog obeying your master. Some never wanting such a life discovers new talents out of nothing. Some go on long hunts to find a career. Anyway everyone reaches some point where they get called professionals whoever it is and whatever one does. Desire to conquer the world arises and the realization of a life ahead begins. Now starts the hard work to outshine in life.

Professionalism in your behavior, thoughts and the way you look. You are now more reserved but still longing for an escape to your memories of the past. Some longing for a get-together; some really missing some big names but for some it’s better being alone. You come late than your parents. Some leave home to be around your work place. Some involved in professional affairs and everyone becomes professional liars in your feild.You get a feeling you don’t have time for anything. For some they still don’t understand what are the stuffs they are do to make money. Money, luxuries is the dream for some; for some others it’s a dream for a safer tomorrow. All different ways in which professionals call. Grown to be called as a safer human being, you start your venture of next stage of life.

                                   

                                                     The fifth stage of life “Committed Relationship”. Often described as the turning point of life begins here. Wedding bells all around. Some take there relationship from the past; some commit new and some end up alone. This is the stage when you add an extra license to you wallet. LTF (License to F***). Marriages are the the occasion were you get this and a thousand people to witness. A little smile on everyone. Days of joy which cannot be counted on your fingers. Some lucky find there perfect partners. Some unite with with there loved ones here. Some go on with broken hearts and some run far away to be alone for ever. All these form an update on your relationship status. Some still go on finding joy making relationships other than the ones they have. Days of varied experiences different from each others as if a new begin till one day you hear a whisper close to your ears “I am pregnant”. There starts the sixth stage of this great journey “Parenting”.

                                                    The sixth stage of life “Parenting”. Some surprised; some burst out with joy; some beginning to think what have I done; every feeling on earth all at a second. For those unlucky thinking of a future adoption and some go on just like that. ‘Parents’ are the names by which they get called now. All ready for another change in there life they count days. There are still stages coming up at a greater pace. “Passenger seat belts advised”.

                                                     Moving on to the seventh stage called “Broken Life’s”. Some turn to be jobless; some faces death of near ones; some caught in a relationship; some diseased and some injured some surprises for all. Lucky are the ones who escape without any damage. Some fall down so deep that they can hardly get up. Some others cling on to the last piece of hope waiting for a magic to happen.

                                                     The eighth stage of this great journey is the next “Cries and Sorrows”. Life has a surprise for all. Everyone equally involved. No one escapes. Here is when the saying “When you loose something you learn” appears. The thought for a second life comes back. Everything you think starts with an “IF” clause. Here is when man begins to think “If I had lived”…..so late baby there is no turning back…life moves on.

                                                     The ninth and final stage of life “Death”. The mighty; the rich; the poor; the cruel; the innocent everyone fall down. Death designed so perfectly that no one misses it and no one can predict the time when it comes. All the riches; all the fame; all the wealth; all the suffering all vanishes in a matter of seconds. No one shorter everybody sucked up into extinction. Such a perfect illusion.

                                                    Every human being no matter who you are STARTS and ENDS in the same way. Then why don’t we at least LIVE for a day forgetting who and what you are. If you can make some one smile; then why wait. If you can spend one day happily with your family then why not today. If you can contribute something for a common man why keep it for tomorrow. Even the Almighty might have a second thought on giving a second life to us. Realize the value of life that we are blessed with and let others too grow along with you. Feel the happiness of sharing and loving others which you were never taught. Please …………….LIVE AND LET LIVE!!!
