Prose 5 : Witnessing The Adulthood

 Witnessing The Adulthood

                                                           - T ABRAHAM

    It is known that some days are special to us and some are the most special ones for us. Our mind tends to remember something we love the most and at the same time it also remembers something that is on the other end of this see-saw as well. So, let us concentrate upon the positive aspect of one's memory and we can focus upon one occasion which is very important to all of us.

    The day when we landed on this earth and an unforgettable one by our loved ones and an unforgettable one for us too. It is the day when the unique creation, created by the creator came into existence and was numbered as one among the species of the human race. This is the day the creation is getting the freedom to be surrounded by the earth's atmosphere from the small sphere to which it was confined during the process of formation. The first breath of this newness coming into existence with the existing ones.

    This day is the day when the journey starts and the time keeps on passing and there is a gradual acceleration in experience and experiments one does in one's own life. The hours pass on, then hours to days then days to months and then from this point onwards the years comes into existence. When we are born we too are calculated based on hours then gradually we calculate only our years of living or our age in terms of years.

    This date is a cherishable one and it is something that can be witnessed once every year. There is a musicality and playfulness filling the air when we were children and when this child is moving into a teenager and then into an adult the music stops and the fruiting nature is slowly diminished but the time of harvest comes in. When you were a child you crave for a birthday cake and you want gifts and share sweetness by sharing chocolates upon this occasion but gradually the gifts and sweetness diminishes. The stage where sweetness is no longer cherished but craving for accomplishments and good health and relations.

    The stage one looses the sweetness and comes to the stage of saltiness is the movement that takes us forward in becoming an adult. The adulthood is something that is seen as one that demands more healthy and delicious craving rather than sweetness that can cause decay and damage and has chances to break one apart.

    The gifts are less valued and the gifts are gradually reduced and the words are accepted. To accomplish and becoming accomplished is a great gift and it does not happen by our will alone but the will of the Almighty. So, this is so true as I am witnessing my 19th year upon the 5th day of the 4th month of every yearly cycle of the earth. To witness and have witnessed is something great and which makes us understand the simple truth that the world is changing and times are changing and we too change in our physicality in terms of our biological development of the body and mind but the inner motives, morality and our instincts remains the same.
