Bachpan ki Yaadein
When gulli-danda and kanche (marbles) were more popular than cricket …
When we always had friends to play aais-paais (I Spy), chhepan-chhepai and pitthoo anytime …
When we desperately waited for ‘yeh jo hai jindagi’ When chitrahaar, vikram-baitaal, dada daadi ki kahaniyaan were so fulfilling …
When there was just one tv in every five houses
When bisleris were not sold in the trains and we were┬á worrying if papas will get back into the train in time or not when they were getting down at stations to fill up the water bottle …
When we were going to bed by 9.00pm sharp except for the ‘yeh jo hai jindagi’ day …
When Holi , Diwali meant mostly hand-made pakwaans and sweets and moms seeking our help while preparing them When Maths teachers were not worried of our mummys and papas while slapping/beating us …
When we were exchanging comics and stamps and chacha-chaudaris and billus were our heroes …
When we were in nanihaals every summer and loved flying kites and plucking and eating unripe mangoes and leechis …
When one movie every Sunday evening on television was more than asked for and ‘ek do teen chaar’ and ‘Rajni’ inspired us …
When 50 paisa meant at least 10 toffees …
When left over pages of the last years notebooks were used for rough work or even fair work …
When ‘chelpark’ and ‘natraaj’ were encouraged against ‘reynolds and family’ …
When the first rain meant getting drenched and playing in water and mud and making ‘kaagaj ki kishtis’ …
When there were no phones to tell friends that we will be at their homes at six in the evening …
When our parents always had 15 paise blue colored ‘antardesis’ and 5 paise machli wale stamps at home…
When we remembered tens of jokes and were not finding ‘ice-cream and papa’ type jokes foolish enough to stop us from laughing …
When we were not seeing patakhes on Diwalis and gulaals on Holis as air and noise polluting or allergic agents …
The list can be endless …on the serious note I would like to summarize with ..
When we were using our hearts more than our brains, even for scientifically brainy activities like ‘thinking’ and ‘deciding’ …
When we were crying and laughing more often, more openly and more sincerely …
When we were enjoying our present more than worrying about our future …
When being emotional was not synonymous to being weak …
When sharing worries and happiness didnt mean getting vulnerable to the listener …
When blacks and whites were the favorite colors instead of greys …
When journeys also were important and not just the destinations…
When life was a passenger’s sleeper giving enough time and opportunity to enjoy the sceneries from its open and transparent glass windows instead of some superfast’s second ac with its curtained, closed and dark windows …
