REDISCOVERY?


Have you always lived in a self assured, well knit cocoon of your own-a world complete with loyal friends, ardent admirers, creative surges that received praise and applause from every corner? Basically this perfect existence, basking in your own glory and blissfully celebrating every moment of your 'blessed' life. This, however turned out to be just a figment of your life...You never ever, even in the bleakest of dreams, or let's put it , nightmares thought you'd have to put up with anything but this absolutely idyllic, divine way of life.....

Not to be a staunch pessimist or anything, but were you wrong! For in every individual's life, there comes that unwelcome streak of rediscovery, of readaptation to a not-so-adoring surrounding, and readjustment. The time when one must start at the bottom and work one's way up to the highest rungs, a time when one's steadfast ideals might suffer ridicule in a reversed utopia, or so it may seem.

This, I say is the true test of your ability, the easy charm and winning attitude, the talent you took pride in. To a world that might not respect these, all you can do is not try too hard to fit in, to NOT be one among the countless voices oozing with the same conversation, to NOT be just another mundane face, another meaningless tongue...at times, all it takes is not to give in to change.
