The weekend did not shape quite well , like most of mine (I seriously hate weekends at least when I dont have something to study related to my syllabus).
With the hope of affirmation of sponsorship of fest the rainy saturday morning greeted me. But unlike other times I was made to contact another person (This meant that I had to again establish a contact with him and explain all the things from begining). I just hate this stuff but for a challenge it was a test of patience for me. Before this I had had chats with other companies and all of them either spontaneously said NO or within a reasonable time I got a response but this time around I was made to wait for a week but still I had to contact someone else. Ok , it was a test ,as it was new for me and I think I had passed it with good marks because I didn't panic and didn't even leave the task at hand. So a small victory for me(Obviously a bigger one would be to secure a sponsorship for my department )
Patience is a quality I have always rued for not being in me. If you want to bet your life on someones patience I would be the last. I preach my mates about this but I hardly followed as my anger has always taken control of most of the situations(till now I had always heated arguments with my family members so all this anger stuff at home only). It was not as if I would intentionally shout but whenever I did I always used to rebuke myself because this is one thing I would like to change in myself. I have succeeded also but the end is far away.
During all this I completely forgot that college was going to reopen from the next week and I had not sorted out my bag and other stuff. But I missed my college frankly speaking I am in first year only but everything about my college attracts me towards it , there is something in its environment which is enjoyable. Maybe friends , college repo dont know but it definitely has a vibrant aura which is appealing for me. So feeling of excitement an d nervousness (I am always nervous at a new session beginning) also adds some flavours in my weekend emotions.
Moving on two things happened over the three days which made me both happy and sad.
First was the song I heard after a long time. Its the song which I think has a lot deeper meaning but for that deeper meaning you dont need a specialist. The words itself are very clear . Let me just write the para of it which makes me love it so much
HASTE HASTE KAT JAAYE RASTE
ZINDAGI YU HI CHALTI RAHE
KHUSHI MILE YA GAM
ZINDAGI CHAHE CHALTI RAHE
I really love this song on the basis of its sheer lyrics. So this definitely brought a smile on my face as this was the song which influenced me as a person a lot.
Second was , a boy playing badminton with his mother. It might be a bit absurd but it just brought back one of my favourite memories of childhood and that was playing at night with friends and family.
I used to relish that time when I used to play with my mother and father as I thought through this I am able to bring joy in their life by bringing them back to their childhood and obviously learning a few tricks from them (especially my father , he was or rather is a master at badminton and cricket)
This sudden flashback brought twin emotions - a sense of joy and sadness (on the thought that when it will happen again) Its not that there are internal problems in the family but shift in priorities especially from my side. Studies have lowered the amount of playing time but still I could have found out time for this. I did not utilise the holidays to the fullest once again.
So this feeling brought an end to a rather ordinary weekend for me.
But with the hope that next day always brings fresh challenges and opportunities to be happy and sad both I enter into the first monday of this year.
A THOUGHT : Life gives us ample opportunities to succeed but they are hidden amidst our failures. We have to just find out them like a hide and seek game because behind every success story there is an unheard failure story. So dont be afraid of failures as no will care about it but listen to your success only :)
