One of those days!!

I was really confused when I first came up with this quote. I put it on Orkut on my profile and I received many scraps from my friends asking me what that meant. I was clueless and did not know what it meant. So I asked my roomies the following question, "What comes to your mind when I say one of those days?" and here is the answer that I got. One said, the times when we had submissions and assignments for our engineering semesters. The other said, the most happy and joyful days of my life. I am still not sure if that is a generic answer and represents everyone or the answer would be relative.

For me one of those days means the times I miss being myself. The times when I was what I wanted to be, times I made my mom dad proud, times when I planned things ahead with my brother and many more things. One of those days when I felt I had it all in me to achieve what I wanted to. I guess its hard to describe in words what this phrase means to me. Thinking about it virtually drives the air out of me.

One of these days, I got this feeling again and I fell weak and it seemed that my knees would buckle. There are many things that we all miss and whenever we remember them, we say, wish I was again back in "In one of those days". I miss the days when it used to rain and we all children used to go to school with drenched coats and hang them on the windows in the class. The gloomy atmosphere in the class (making you feel like when will I grow up and get out of school), the smell of the drenched coats lingering in the class, all the kids looking out every time it used to start raining and then the teacher scolding the kids "are your books outside or is it that a movie is going on outside!!" . I bet everyone misses these days.

I am back to school now, but the fun is gone, we are now adults and feel shy in doing things that once we never even thought twice before doing em. Everyone is grown up now, working towards becoming a millionaire, working to get in a multinational firm. We all have become so busy that we don' even have time to visit someone and say Hi!! Smile at someone you know. I contrast, we as kids used to start playing with any damn kid we found.

There are some things that I did when I was a kid. I consider it a boon an opportunity god gave me to make a difference, an opportunity to show the world I exist and I am no less. An opportunity to make my parents and my family proud. I lost it all. I know some people who might say I did justice to the boon and made my parents proud, I would rather treat it as a dream left unfulfilled and dream that I realized one of those days, a dream which came in at the wrong time, a dream that will remain a dream and I wish to god I wouldn't have had some of those days!!
