More or Less

It had been quite sometime since I had an amazing weekend. This one is going to be cherished for some good long time to come. The reason , not being that I did something great or something great happened , rather so simple , for I did keep myself away from all the things that I would normally be using viz. laptop , mobile , pen drives , hard disk , watch etc. 

       I dont intend to say that I am a techie or something but the point here is that the these things though very much essential, always keep reminding us how fast is the life that we are living and these things make us feel that  life is so complicated though it is not , I would call them "pseudo-complicators" ( I know such a word doesn't exist but just that is what I feel these things are !). 

      I must admit that I really did get nostalgic , felt the same freedom that I used to have a couple of years ago and yes I did not call up friends and decide to meet , I just knocked their doors and Voila ! they were avaliabe :) Just the same as I would do a couple of years ago (Rather a decade to be precise). I was thinking how beautiful it was when our lives were not surrounded by these "pseuco-complicators". 

We have all things we need,
Don't have things that we want.
Crazy thoughts grow like weed,
Things still continue to haunt.

We were happy when, things We had 'ere less,
We thought We'd be more happy when We have things more.
In this process , We have run into a mess,
Can't stich the things that We have tore.

We didnt have a phone ,yet we used to meet,
The friends with whom We would play.
Now though We own a phone so neat,
Not even a Hi , to them We would say.

We used to walk down the lane,
Where we used to play day long.
To go out now, is a bane,
Don't wanna walk even a furlong.

It doesn't matter what you have,
What matters is what you do.
The only way out to salve
Is to start the things all anew.
