Motherhood Moments

If I’m going to lose my self for a decade, motherhood sure is a delicious thing to lose it to." Read that line in a blogpost/article...... And i totally agree..While having tiny fingers poking into my eyes at 6am on Saturday mornings is not fun and being emotionally blackmailed by a tiny 4 yr old saying "I love you and i want to hug you" everytime i open my mouth to say "Time out" is not what i expected of Motherhood.....The years are going by way too fast... My tiny baby is already a little boy...and so i'm deciding to enjoy the tiny fingers and toes (With all the poking and kicking)...

Time Flies....

Recently one of my college mates put up a post on FB to remind us all that it has been a decade since that fateful day we joined cllege.. I can still remember that day with total clarity...4 of us on a bench together....An inaugral speech by our chairman which showed us that his speeches would be the most entertaining feature of our college lives.... A kinda good looking guy sitting next to me and both of us ignoring each other as our parents chatted (coz boys and girls could not talk - Even with chaperonage) My Mom telling me that the friends i made that day would not be the same friends i had by the time a month went past (she was right) A bearded Professor glaring at us when we laughed at our chairman's english ... The excellent food that would be the one saving grace of the 4 year jail term.... 10 years have now gone by and i look back and see so many things ...so many lessons learnt...So many mistakes made..... So many times my "wat u see is wat u get" attitude got me into trouble... So many movie scenes played out in real life... So many regrets..... But those lessons and mistakes have been the stepping stones for so many decisions.... Those punishments and blackmails by professors, funny anecdotes I share with friends... Of those friends made in those 4 years... I am still in touch with so many... Facebook and WhatsApp and Skype have helped... But sometimes I wonder... Would life have been easier for those 4 years of I had owned a crystal ball? Would I have been cheated less?? Gotten hurt less?? Made bettter use of opportunities?? .. I guess I will never know....
