Reunion

Watched Rock On & thought Reunion.

Daly College, batch of 83 is going to have their reunion since they want to recreate the magic of school after 25 years. The enthusiasm with which a select group has been going about organizing this event has swept me too .... its as if i am truly a part of this batch of 83. Its taken 25 years, but now i feel a part of this batch, where the boys ( except for the een meen sade teen) never spoke with me!!! A city girl, who lived by her rules, was like a sore thumb in an establishment which was so tuned to their age old traditions, a complete flip to what i was all about!! Girls will be girls, we all got to be friends, with approx 30 girls to a strength of approx 300 boys in senior school, what do you expect !!! Girls Ruled!!! :-)

Just 2 years, however, the memories are like the strobe lights at the dance floor, flashes jo thamne ka naam nahin lete, and when recollections fails, I do have friends with memories of an elephant, who remind me of the nonsensical mayhem one was capable off ?????!!!! Ailaa !!! Was so sure about the Halo on my Head !!!!

Officially I am not their batch , but since i did study with this batch for 2 years, they were sweet enough to include me ( or is it some hidden agenda of Badla taking!!!??? ) & a few other batch mates like me for the reunion.

Agar hum, the chosen few, jo 2 years main itni behtareen memories ke shikar the, then needless to say, that the rest of the gang who were class mates for 4,5,10,12 years , their memorabilia would be astounding.

Rock On, got 4 boys together, here it is more than 60 classmates , a humungous task, to say the least!!!

Rock On, got me thinking on the sensitivity of a Reunion. A fantastic intention, seems like a piece of cake to organize, but when you get to the actual nitty gritty , one realizes what an arduous & complex task it really is!!

Reminiscing about school days has loads of retrospection. Kuch acchi ,kuch bhulne layak, Friendships that have survived every situation, to Friendships which died a natural death the day one left school, to Friendships which went sour because of an unwarranted situation!!!

A Reunion is just the requisite needed to get back to the same Bond. A Time to rekindle lost friendships, to reintroduce , to revive , to ReEstablish the Fevicol ka jod once again!!! To let bygones be bygones.........


There are no Winners or Losers, just Friends.
There is no Ego, only Friendship.
There are no Regrets only Gratitude, thats Friendship.
There is Trust, there is Faith, thats Friendship.
There is Love, there is Care, thats Friendship.

Life too in a lot of ways is a Reunion, which brings me to my simple, seedha saadha Insight ......

Rock On ...... Don't let the past rule your present!!
Rock On ...... Make your dreams a reality!!!
Rock On ...... Second chance ko haath se jaane na do!!!
Rock On....... Every beat, every rhythm is Life!!!

Live the moment ....
