I thought I was old,
because I keep remembering the good old days. But I am convinced now that I am
young, because I have now listened to many individuals who are young... and still
remember their good old days. Not once or twice, but multiple times, at various
places across India (sometimes with visitors living elsewhere too). The
nostalgia is about friends, roomies, hostel food (even bad food), non-hostel
food, events inside class and outside of it (from old students, as you may have
guessed). And guess what, it is a magical feeling. Happy to be a part of such
conversations, now across many of my former students from IIMI, IMT, PES, IFIM,
and KIAMS. Golden oldies and Golden youngies are both nostalgic, and happy
about it!
The strongest memories are of playing hookey, and being scolded for it, surprisingly! No, I am not leading up to anything, simply reporting on observations.. :)
