I have always fancied growing
old. I know it’s debatable, but I believe when you add life to years you grow
wiser. It's actually a phenomenon to embrace what life has to teach every time.
And it's a miracle every day trying to be better than what you were yesterday.
True that when I was a kid I had less worries but I had no control over my
surroundings or even my life. Of course we face more challenges as we grow up
but then we are wiser and well equipped to handle our situation. Growing up is
about moving out of your comfort zone and daring to take risks. We learn to
explore and in the process add values to our life.
For me the best part was doing my
graduation and finding the right job. When I was at engineering the study, the
tech fests, the trips and the projects played a great role in shaping my
future. I was no longer an introvert; I learnt how to make a point and stand by
it and developed passion for what I did. The interaction with class fellows and
teachers gave me a clear vision. I was no longer the confused person trying to
figure out what to do next but someone who was sure about my dreams. I learnt
that even if I failed to fulfill any of my dreams, I would actually love the
process of trying and never giving up. I have also never considered my job to
be just a bread earning thing and it gives me purpose and desire to live. Like
I said growing up is about growing wiser, learning more and improving the life
of others. There can be no end to learning and there can be no end to imparting
knowledge. There are always people who can learn from our experience and we
never know who are motivated by our urge to live and learn for better. It is
rightly said that it's never too late to start anything new and if we are alive
there is still a purpose. Moreover just because you are growing old it never
means to stop having fun. Growing up helps to overcome weakness and makes you dare
to face failures. So, why be afraid to grow old? Old is definitely gold!
