Sugar n Spice n Everything Nice- The Story

I ve been wanting to use this title since a long tym... But the right content never came across. Today i think i have some appropriate content for it :P

It is been exactly 22 years 6 months and 11 days since the tym i gasped for my first breath... a few hrs lesser since my first cry and maybe a few days lesser since my first laugh or smile...

Life for the initial 17 years were sometwat insignificant... i didnt really know wat the world is all abt... n i didnt bother myself with the trivialities of life.

The rest 5 yrs 6 months and 11 days have been a journey... Ups n downs, long stretches, spirals, parallel roads, round abouts, branching roads, and dead ends. I've seen beautiful valleys and hideous dungeons. Everyday I've learnt an aspect of life that is ugly yet beautiful in its own way. Every road that i've tread on has been invigorating. I've seen these ups n downs because I chose the road, knowing that it'll show me places i've never seen before. At times, I thought that these ups n downs would lead to deadends, but actually they were long stretches which eventually branched out. I chose one road over the other because I knew there wasn't a middle path. But the sceneries of the long stretches remain forever. N i do think wat wud i have seen if i had taken the other road. But i can never tell because i'll never tread that road again. Maybe someday that road will meet my road and everything would be the same. There are times when the other road does cross the road I am travelling, for a moment i do think that it would go parallel with my road. But these stretches are short. They come n go, n i keep moving on my road with a promise to meet that road again.

I meet spirals on my way. I go in a circle, realize im back in the same place n the place has become dirtier. Let me give another try, but the scene doesn't change. Rather it gets darker. But still i move on only to reach a deadend. It is then i realize maybe it was a wrong turn, a wrong decision. I promise myself to be careful next tym. I chose that road bcoz it looked promising and I thot I cud reason out why i was choosing this road. But wen the reasons began to end, i cudnt give myself another reason to stay. So, i moved out of the spiral to see i've only reached a desert. The temptation to enter the spiral still remains but i dont want to go back again.

Now, I see the desert and barren land, the sun is too strong here. I shield myself from the sun and the wind. The sun burning me and the sand in the wind piercing my skin. I find ways to protect myself. I dig a hole n go inside. I see no sun n I see no road. I feel safe, yet i want to go out n i want to face the sun. Because im a traveller n i cant wait for the wind to die away. These are the days i might never see again. These are the moments i might never feel again.

So, i go out n see the view has changed. It isn't that windy and i can see a road ahead. I see the scene is changing. I see a river and lush green trees all along the river. I run to the road. To begin a new journey with a new zeal...

(Sequel to this blog shall follow describing each road in detail. So wait, for therez more to come.)

(FYI-- the roads represent my friends- some long lasting friends others whom i just regret calling friends!!)
