Kicking the stone while walking and trying to keep pushing the stone as you walk along with you... How many of you have done this in your childhood days.... I hope almost everyone who had the oppurtunity to walk to the school nearby.
I was doing this today morning while returning from a shop walking on a lonely road.... It makes me think nowadays there is a school bus that picksup children right in front of the house/ apartment or they have a car/bike with driver/parent dropping them right in front of school so kids never get a chance to walk the way alone in a silent lane.... I am not sure if it is considered safe these days...
Things have changed... there are still few places that I would like to take a picture in my neighbourhood..before they change... some interesting memories that directly link to my childhood.... paati kadai, cycle shop, my old primary school, tuition centre... come to think of it... so many places have been demolished and built as apartments... the 100ft road that was once a lonely road has now become a busy traffic packed and under construction four way lane...
Future generation may not even realize how many trees were there on that road few decades back... 5G was the only bus route that used to pass that road... and those days if you happen to get into that bus then you are considered to be lucky for not walking till the bus stand...now i can see atleast 2 to 3 bus for every 5 minutes on that road. Things have changed... so have I....
I was a school kid back then... I didnt needed a blackberry or a laptop to work... a unruled notebook and ball point pen was sufficient... But its always human tendency to go back to those old days and cherish those memories... and Ian blogging it down here instead of writing it in a diary :-)
