The Firsts of Many
So we are actually going to go
through my life timeline until this very day from the first day out of which
one indent i have told you guys already 'me opening my eye' it was quiet a big
thing for my fans and here by fans i mean to say my parents as they were the
ones who were most eagerly waiting for me like a diehard fan of shahrukh khan
waiting outside of his house just to get a glance of his face. That was the first
of many disappointment that i faced in my just started life cause life was
nothing like it was expected the very moment i came out of the womb i started
crying, not out of happiness for sure but i was shocked to see many people
getting happy upon seeing me cry. reality hit me in the face back then.
After this comes the first time i
tried walking, oh god don’t even ask it was a pretty big task back then, like
Edison said i found 99 ways not to walk but that meant i had a lot of falls to
achieve my first walk and muscles were all sore and that was the best part
because i get free massages.
Oh yeah i almost forgot, my first
words well there's nothing much left to guess in it but still I’m keeping it a
secret and we'll see how many of you co-relate. It was exciting to be able to
speak up those first words that was my first public speech as well.
Who forgets their first school,
on joining school I was made sure I experienced many more firsts of my life
which are an everlasting memory and that I can recall up to this day. My firs
school, class, friend even the school bus i travelled has an emotional
connection attached to it and that makes it special. The first thing to learn
in school was obviously the English alphabet and the first time I said all
those 26 characters of the alphabet at a stretch, felt like l owned the world.
That was when i first tasted appreciation and the thirst hasn't reduced till
date and i will continue doing so.
I must mention about Julie my
first pet well actually she's a senior and she's been seeing from the time mom
was pregnant more like a guardian would do.
The first time you get scolding’s
or make your parents proud of you or stand up for yourself well these things
are such which still fire us up even today, they happen once but leave its effect
till the end. The first time I saw my lil brother was the first sense of
responsibility and it had come without anyone asking for it.
The first time I made my parents
proud was the first time they saw me on a stage& that’s the first time l realised I can make them
happy. The first fight that I had with my dad, even though it didn't last long,
it was a tough thing to do.
I'm sure not many people remember
their first day of school but i still run that memory in my mind every time im
low and with first school comes first friend and we know no one forgets their
first friend and hey you whoever is reading this if you don't have that
friendship running still please don't get jealous over me cause i have been
lucky in that case. If you ask me id say making friendship is easier compared
to maintaining it, i have maintained one for over 2 decades now, isn't that
enough to celebrate every day of your life.
Now that you guys are reading
this article just wanted to let you know that this is a “first” too not for me
though but my college but my first article was a long time back where i wrote
one bout my dad, yeah I keep repeating and involving my dad a lot cause he is
my many "firsts” in life like my first hero, friend, mentor and many more
its just that he owns a lot of pages in my life book.
Ups and downs are a natural thing
that everyone faces in their life, no one talks about their ups in life cause
it doesn't teach anything but is the result of your hard work whilst the downs are what teaches you what life in real is and
makes you ready to face the world i too had many ups and downs mentally and physically,
i was at a stage where i was really low mentally and like i said downs are what
make you a better person, u don’t lose anything when you are down but you gain
special friends whom you want to believe in forever, i too met one such friend
these friends aren't those who had stayed with you for the longest time but at
the right time and bring hope in life and swear to support you in life no
matter what and prove it as well but then there are also friends who just stay
there with that tag done nothing but texting once in a while just to make sure
they are alive and I’m not even joking have seen such friends too. No matter
what happens just see to it that at the end of the day you are smiling when you
go back to sleep, make memories be it bad or good cause you can’t choose what
memory you want, yes you can go on a road trip it’ll be a memory but we don’t
get to decide if it’s a good one or bad one because you know what “life happens”.
So yeah: thanks guys for travelling through my timeline i have shared a few "firsts” of my life with you I’m sure even you would have precious ones like this too make sure that you don’t forget them when new things show up. I have many such firsts but still every day is another chance to make many more firsts again and never lose that charm of ‘firsts' or else everything will end up being the "lasts"
