The End Of An Era

By Stuti Kapoor

'Sun rises and sets everyday'.

The beginnings be the new innings to dreams and bucket full of tasks but an end is the collection of loads of memories, mixture of emotions and onto a new phase of life.

And that's how life continues.

Throughout the journey we embrace many relationships, hurdles and moments for life. And no doubt it is the surroundings that keep us going through everything. Family, friends, colleagues, ambition, success and failures all constitute to the surroundings. Many changes and few stay constant all way but everyone was important at their presence. Even if the set of best friends changed but they will always be called friends because they made the spent moments liveable. It is the surroundings only which enables us to put the step forward because they be there as well.

What made me hit this screen today is an era that is about to end with me as soon as the clock strikes. It is definitely relatable.

We spend an entire year for turning a year older every year. It encompasses those three hundred sixty five days of happiness, stupidity, boredom, clinginess, confusion and sometimes unexpected situations. And all these emotions make the year special and the yearn for the upcoming birthday louder. That marks the importance of year in a birthday.

So, how much important the era of the decade can be to the person who must be ending it and looking forward to the other ahead. A chill definitely runs down the spine.

Turning twenty tomorrow brings a lot of things in mind. I say twenty loud because it involves twenty years of parenthood to my wonderful parents, twenty years of brotherhood to my awesome yet babbler brother and twenty years with the gracious extended family. Friends, who were the most special addition to the decade and who proved who will continue for forever. This is what all makes twenty special. The decade of teenage not only bring changes physically but even mentally. The special decade make us wonder the transformation we developed.

To every person among us every birthday counts special because we are elated for it and a bit inclined in thoughts guessing the surprise it could bring. The surprise need not be wrapped in glace rather engulfed in memories. How much splendid won't it be if reminding each other the older we turned together and the funny segments we shared. Won't it bring the broadest grin and the people in connect more connected. Because every relationship is important and full of life. Our one soul is connected to so many souls.

Birthday makes the celebration special but the surroundings make the connect special and memories make it much more deeper.

The era ends bringing many more new ends to face and many more new beginnings to cherish and flourish with.

The sun rises every morning,

Stepping towards the end forming.

It brings end to dire portent,

Justifying the surpassed horizons, how important!

Many are brought to life with it

And live in the memories knit.

But, above everything its beginning and end is enjoyed the most

And it sets back to be the next day host.

Occasion comes and go but memories stay forever with everyone.
