Dreams

After finishing a meeting at 8 o’clock, I came to home with my colleague Lokesh in his TVS Victor. He described about his dreams at the early age, and told he has thought about a life in village and now he got in to IT sector n working from morning to evening with out having greeneries. He told, up to his final year degree he hasn’t think about the career and life. In village, people won’t much bother about their future. They are living in the present life.

In the early age like 3-5, the child will think about the parents and the child know only parents are great (yep, they are). You can observe the ego(mean to say there strength) of child who climbs over their parents at that age, in street.
After the 5th age the child go to school(sorry, I am not considering the pre 1st standard schools!). And there the child thinks the teachers are great. You can ask about his mission or vision to him, he will surely tell to become a teacher (until or unless the parents started pushing to be an engineer or a doctor!)
At my 7-10 age, I went to a school in a village called Mulleria in Kasaragod district and going through bus. While going I thought about the conductor who collect the money and gives the tickets, and I dreamed to become a conductor. You know, how much it gives the trill when you are in that age?! The conductor will tell “Rigggght Riiiiight”, I will bet you; the child at that age will really think of that and dream to become a conductor…!
After some 12th age, if boy is a good cricket player, , he will think of the Indian cricket team and dream about the day how he can contribute his efficiency and effectiveness in the Indian cricket team, or if a good chess player, then he will dream about the master Anand, or good singer in the school festivals then think of the singer like SPB or Yesudas.

After 18, now boy is not to be a boy, he is grownup enough (!). I remember a stanza of Bhaja Govindam by Shree Shankaracharya

Baalaavasta kriiDasakta:
taruNastavat taruNii sakta:

At the early age like kid will always tends to or attracted by the play games. And the teenagers will attracted by the opposite sex. It is what we call nature.

Dreams… dreams……..!

APJ Abdul Kalam told about the dreams….. You have to dream before your dreams can come true…

Every body will dream about some thing, some time we will call some one as day dreamer, if he has more dreams…! Dreams will make a guy to leave, to stand up and smile, to get in to the smoother life. If some body is tells, he is not having dreams, then just think that he is lying or he is a mad one. Every one who is living in this earth has their own dreams.

its too late.. I'm going to dream... some thing which I always like to dream!!

Nice, your blog took me back to those days and infact realised that I too had those dreams. We are too absorbed in the present that we forget the past.
