Many of us are familiar with these famous lines of a song called "time" by Pink Floyd. Isn't it so true. I was going through the same feeling on my birthday which was few weeks ago. I turned 26 and realize its too old an age to be in. Its the prime time of my life and probably after this i would be at the descending part of my life physically if not mentally.
When i was child i wanted to be a young man as soon as possible and wanted to do so many things, I wonder where that child has lost now when i am a full grown young man. But has he really got lost..No he hasn't. Its there somewhere there in my mind and keeps nagging me to look out for things which he always aspired to do. That child wanted to spend some day all alone in some unknown place with unknown people. Child wanted to know about the world, this universe, the whole purpose of life, He wanted to wander on mountains besides the green green grass and lush trees around. He wanted to sleep in mother nature's lap. Life is beautiful indeed. Enjoy every phase of it and do whatever the child in you wants to do because child has the purest and non-manipulative thought.
