A School Boy/Girl Again

Two Partitions one for textbooks, one for notebooks, with the rolling sound of pencils in a geometry box, all inside a school bag, hung upon daring shoulders, they rock to school!

I guess, today if you reflect on your school days (like those 8th 9th 10th standard days) you will find that you were a firm and strong believer of yourselves back then. I am not saying that today you don't trust yourself, but surely the enthusiasm, passion, desires, power of dreams etc. for any profession, thing, the person you wanna be etc. has faded from your earlier self.to you as today..?!

Maybe it is the 'expectations from you'  by your family, responsible for it?

Maybe it is the fresh beginning of a new crush of yours, where that introductory attraction has quite suitably forced you to lose yourself a bit..?! at the expense of his/her??

hehe..Well come-on be honest !

May be, like, slowly you are able to visualise a 'fading in' reality from a dense misty fog, where your dreams, start to 'fade out'.?!

It is common sense, that it is a dawn of so called 'grown up' power of reason of yours where you start laughing on yourselves, "Such a stupid kid I was?"

We claim it today as an adult, that it is the 'wisdom' which is sinking in your mind as you slowly grow in your life, where you start to think and reason and filter-out that I/you were being childish.

I think sometimes growing up is not good for your success and dreams. (may be it is, I don't know).

As you grow, you are affected by judgements of other people in your surroundings be it your family, friends, partner anyone.

You are even 'affected' by that grown up 'clever mind' of yours who will cross question your self belief and dreams by examining and comparing everything between your present state and your dreams…?!

(Certain severe living conditions such as extreme poverty etc can be accepted)

but for most of the times we have to say that this so called grown up reasoning power of yours which we call wisdom isn't your enemy..?!

Doesn't it force you to procastinate? Your 'clever mind' will try to distract you from your 'real goals'.?!

As 'wisdom' sinks in, so is the fear. Isn't it interesting?

" A wise man once said…..

Why?? why a "wise" man said???because he lost his dare, to let others lose too??"

Observe situations in your life that when you are told to be "wise"?

To save you from a dangerous situation?

(it is claimed to be common sense in such cases, otherwise you will be termed as a fool, Oh lord see me! I just now have a fear of judgement from people to be called myself a 'fool' lolz !!....

well I am not talking about that Aag mei hath daaloge to jalega waala common sense...it is obvious..)

At times, there is a very thin line between 'common sense' and 'being wise' .

Maybe the problem is that the grown-up minds of we human beings often misjudge between the two. It is really hard for all of us to judge between the two, thus our 'grown up clever minds' avoid such a situation altogether, in fear  to be judged as a fool, and we end up being average.

(e.g. bhai yehi kr leta/leti hu, life hai mazaak Ni hai, kaun chance le??? see??? , actually we don't have a fear of what will happen to our lives, in reality we are not afraid for the consequences of our decisions

but carefully observe that our 'clever mind'  is 'wise' and it doesn't want to take any chances, doesn't want to be called itself a fool in front of those other 'clever minds' lolz...in reality we don't have a fear, but this 'grown-up clever mind' has.

'No adult has a powerful mind like a child', but it is the dare of the mind of a child who can take you to your dreams.)

Being a child is difficult in the world which actually lives to its dream, people just grow-up to be 'wise' enough which numbs them to action and make them prone to fears.

Risk and its consequences are worth it.

(however, as usual this will again sound foolish because we grown-up adults are reading and writing  na! lolz R.I.P. child mind and its dreams)

Ultimately it doesn't allow you to take risks, now you know that your daring, kiddish, heart has been assasinated by this so called grown-up mind of yours.

The mind of your younger self was a  firm believer, pure, stubborn, it wasn't accepting a defeat, it believed firmly "I wanna be a NASA astronaut, so I will be."

"I wanna be Miss universe, so I will be."

"I wanna be the next Barack Obama, so I will be."

"I am gonna create a new generation of processors, so I will be."

till your grown-up mind literally poops out of nowhere!

"Rules are meant to be broken."

Rules are always made by the grown-up adult ones, ever any child made a rule?? So, they are the ones who will break it for the better good.

Adult must follow rules, a pattern, because they are 'wise' , they have a resistance to risk.

Maybe the mind of a child is the heart of a warrior which makes a difference in reaching your true dreams. It is unbiased, it is not contaminated with negativity and such thoughts, it is experimental in nature as it is not 'wise'.

We have the power to reason as an adult, but risk taking and trying things is life but 'wise minds' might not show flexibility here.

It would be better if we still have that 'School Boy/Girl' left alive in ourselves.
