Smile has a mile in it

As a child we need things like sweets and time away from the ever demanding books. As a child one would never have the freedom to take decisions, we look at our parents or elder siblings and wonder when we would be able to fit into their shoes and rule the world. The grass is always green on the other side they say :).

As a child I was despondent when i could not go on a school trip which was a holy trip to some place. Sing glory of Christ(yes i did study in the missionary). I remember feeling the same amount of pain when my dad's elder brother fell prey to diabetes. One would look at the child then and say "look at the little one, so innocent".

Just yesterday i was wondering if this is the case, would a child only say so. After iv seen quite some amount of things pass by in this journey called life. I wonder if i would react any different. I was elated when I saw my friends after a long summer break :). I was elated to see my dream come true and all my questions answered after the placement day. Now i could i compare the joy behind the two. I don't really think. I thing these emotions stand apart and are in no way compare-able.

Be it joy or sorrow. I think these are the emotions that make our life special. Make it worth living :). A life without emotions would have been a journey through the forest unaware of the splendid beauty and the wonders around. Emotions are to be lived, its only when things happen that we get to savor it. As time passes by we tend laugh at even the troubles we faced in life. Remember looking back and feeling stupid that we fought over a aisle seat :), then it seemed like the must unjust thing to be done to us. So lets just try to move past the troubles and laugh at them at a later point of time.

Joy, well thats not something in abundance around lets enjoy the moment of cheer and happiness and try to share it with others. A smile makes a kid forget his problem at hand, adult to forget his trouble and wonder why people around him are smiling. Lets make life fun for ourselves :).

Wonderful thought. Anything which appears big today will surely be considered something small when we look back after years.

So lets mock at present problems saying "Hey chotu" :)
