A Long Way!!

Did it ever occur to you to look behind and flip back on old times?See the people you have left behind,and check upon where they are,what's happened in their lives or have they changed?Facebook,and its constant updates help you look and get amazed at some makeovers,the checkins keep you updated about recent whereabouts,or some people make sure they update even the slightest happenings on their profiles,making themselves crystal clear, or the cover photos of those "who were just some knowns" ,say a lot about what has changed since old times.At such moments,i just wonder "how far i have come"?? With things happening in split seconds, we dont realize but we travel a lot in terms of time.And i wonder i have travelled a long way since last few years.Everyone has i guess.My colleagues,they are all around different parts of the world. Some have had major makeovers,some got married,some did MBA and are back to collared jobs,some are seen reuniting with their friends in US, while some are still waiting for new things and changes to come their way too.Changes, hell lot of them. Attitude,actions,appearances and status- i have had a lot of changes too like others.Isnt it weird that when you place yourself,years ago, and try to relive some small wayward xyz situation, you realize that you remember almost everything about it?And travel back in time,thinking that if it was for now,you could have  thought,acted in a way different way than before.Experience,really is god.And it comes with time,of age.Working mysteriously at times when its supposed to do so,so that by the time you mature,already half way through path B,you realize that path A was easier, but what you lacked then was experience.And ofcourse, you shine on  path B coz time brings that power of self realization within you.And you turn up a changed person. How can you blame yourself, when the most bful diamonds too take a lot of cutting before they really shine?? But the truth is, there is no bigger thing than self contentment and its the only way to cross miles before you depart the world,before you turn back and flip through your life for the last time ever.
