Ample of Past...

Had been clearing up and uploading books from the Hard drive to a site.
While that was being done, stumbled upon the old pictures, hidden in folders, far forgotten...

The distance of years, transcended in a matter of few clicks

And a smile pasted on the face, that still lingers on.
Unbelievable amount of time passed off so quick..and filled with every possible emotion. Mostly smiles.

The past that used to bring up the bulky photo albums, now brings the big folders.
Different times, different ways.

Few striking things, that how much the face, age (and fashion) changes.
From relatives to all the friends, farewells over time.
Wondering what if I upload them on facebook - how much glee that'd be.

Suddenly seeing and remembering that hadn't met that certain uncle aunty since ages. How are they doing? Virtually meeting them in thoughts, trying to catch up the memory of the time we would have last met..sometimes comes, sometimes just a blank..

Do they look different now?
Fat? Thin? more wrinkly? more smiling?

Nanaji :')
So many of his pictures. So much more of missing..

Mum Pa, doing various things, that old home, that still calls me up in memories. So much more of missing..again..

2010, 2011 - my birthday, benaras, arjun uncle daughter's wedding, vartu's home farewell pictures, sakshi s's surprise b'day at my place and that messy popping sparkle thing, home inaugration - 25 march 2010, college functions, and my abundance of photography love spread out all over...
The times I spend loving being in the feel of the only child, though wasn't really. But pseudo ways.

College, birthdays and anniversaries
The treasure trove of everything.

The most prominent, change in hairstyles of so many of those people in the pictures.
And mine too (and body weight :D )

Besides, a lot of things, lingering around in that past, lost, forgotten...under the dust in some distant corners of the past and home.

Had been clearing up bit of spaces in room around..
Thrown away the unused stuff.
Found some old movie tickets - Jurassic park - 4 tickets - we all went together for!

Like before, starting to collect those memories again. Red folder is alive here as well from now on.

Why besides being the external life tough -- comprising of jobs/networks/career ,
makes the internal one tougher, comprising of, long forgotten uncle aunty, the smell of authentic indian monsoons, the touch of mother tongue flowing effortlessly, home....are so very far away.. and gives just a few days to catch up all, and start living like robots, all over again...

Blessed are the people, who don't have to do such harsh compromises..

Today.
All smiles and misty eyes...


..after all of this, this night seems like turning in to one of those blues times.....to shut the world and mind like everyday and sleep..
