A Town of Memories...: Discovering Me.

Discovering Me.


It is just another day. A day off from college. Getting a little me-time, I begin typing whatever comes to my mind. Nothing does actually..
So, I look at the things around me for some inspiration.. suddenly the intention of looking around (to find a topic to write on) is suddenly replaced by something so sublime that sends me into one of those retrospective modes.
I'm sitting on a bed.. my teddy bear by my side.. study table on the left.. walls decorated with all kinds of Godly posters. Everything I had, I have. Then what is it that makes me so restless, so insecure.. so incomplete?
I'm here in college for the last five months and I've been looking for the answer ever since. Maybe it is my Mother I miss so much or the comforts of 'Home'.. Maybe it is the beautiful sunsets in the hillside or the mesmerising river-view. There's so much I have, and there's so much I don't.
These are two different worlds.. and my existence, like liquid, takes the form of the vessel.
 At home, I may be wilder than the street dog and it feels okay.. I can doze off till afternoon and still feel it's so early.. There's a reason why it's called Home after all ~ because you know that no matter how much you mess up, those people back there will love you, come what may. They'll back you up, care for you, protect you and even if there is no one.. they are there. Always.
In here, it's the Real world. The Big Bad World. There are good people and there are monsters wanting to eat you up. And everyday is a battle to survive. Sometimes you win and sometimes you just have to give in. People say College Life is the Best Part of one's Life and that every experience, every encounter with Reality and how you deal with situations everyday, brings you closer to who you are, what your capabilities are and who you can be in future. They reflect the future-you. Theories, Philosophies.. Stories and facts.. True or not, I'll have to find out!
"I-Me-Myself", they say, is the most selfish one-liner. But I think discovering that "I-Me-Myself" is the actually motive of your Life- the reason why you live. Who I am today, has been a combined effort of so many people.. I owe all my goodness to my parents and all the bads in me, I owe them to me! But what I am going to be tomorrow, would be largely my take on Life.. an unveiled mystery I am looking forward to.
