What If...


Give me some sunshine, give me some rain, give me another chance I wanna grow up once again…..


Have you ever wondered what would it be like traveling back in time and get a chance to grow up once again…and what if you could turn back time and return to those sunny days once again…what if you could relive those “special moments” of your life once again…and may be make few amends and turn back things the way you always wanted them to be!!!

What if!!!

As another New Year approaches (there’s still 10 mins left)…I try to reflect back upon my past…and I realize that my past is haunted by two words…what if!!

What if I had lived my life according to my values and not by the rules set by others!!

What if I had chosen to be a bit more confident or maybe a bit more prudent!!

What if I had the courage to propose her rather than holding it to my heart!!

What if I had listen to my parents and had gone for engg.!!

What if I had been a bit more loyal friend!!

well, he list of "what if" is very long…I cant put it all over here…but it seems I have too many regrets from my past…regrets that seem to grow with time…regrets for the mistakes I made…

But, wait a minute…who am I to judge if those decisions were mistakes!!…I mean who guarantees that, had I gone the other way round things would have been better for me??
May be its already better for me…may be I am unable to look beyond imperfections…

People make all sorts of weird resolutions on New Year eve (quitting cigarettes, decreasing the waist size etc etc)…and I guess its time for me to make mine…

So here I go…

From now onwards I’ll never regret my any decision and I’ll stop dwelling on my past

Aur waise bhi. I guess there’s something in life which does not deserve change… some wounds are better left unhealed…some memories are better left untouched… some stories are better left unheard…coz its these little things that matter in life…and it’s this unpredictability of life which makes it exciting… make your mistakes yaar…and who knows what started off as a mistake might end up being the best decision of your life…

N guess what!!!

Its 00:00 hrs, 1st jan….

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Hi Shivam, thanks for joining my blog. One question-are you a Creed fan?
Happy New Year. Hmm...nice resolution. You know what, if we keep regretting what we have done in the past, we will regret this present in the future because of the time we waste in regretting!
This post reminded me of who I used to be...:)
