Memories Of Cafe's Site ~

 And there comes this moment when we sit alone somewhere in dark room; on bed.. on floor.. or may be, on sofa... n keep remembering.. n recalling.. n missing the ol' gone time that often keeps us all awake.. till dawn & pulls us back into the apocalypse of past & its good/bad memories - 

Today, i visited this cafe's site after a very long time, and see too many new faces, esp. both the young & aged writers... n keep writing and walking along time every day and night making and imprinting another memory of the {passing} day. It was a time when i was so new to this cafe's site, if i remember it exactly, i joined this cafe's site back in 2012 or may be, i can say that it was those prime years when i embarked on my writing journey without having any destination to reaching... where? 

it was 2012 and now it's 2020 - i was bad at writing, but can find me pretty good at this stuff. So many things have i learned and experienced in those gone days in lost years... and in between that, if i find some time to think on it again, then more than what i have gained, i have lost something either - and it's my "AGE"... 

... how sad and funny it's to be saying that people become professional (s); become wealthy; richer and whatever w/ time and age and experience but it doesn't seem to be applicable to everyone. Whether you become wealthy; rich or successful in life w/ time - yes or no - doesn't matter - what matters is, with time and experience, you loose your age as well. And there comes this time and moment in everyone's life when we all sit quiet and think - what we have just found and what have we lost. 

Ps. 

Tonight, i am sitting in my bed and thinking how fast the time has vanished off my life. If i had some power, i am sure would have wished travelling my childhood again and cuff on me; my childhood; the naive me; on myself and saying: "NEVER WISH TO GROW UP cos sometimes... growing up doesn't really define what n who you are, but the state of your freedom does - the freedom of age." 

I still remember that night when i was sitting on my couch many long gone years back, esp. when i was way younger and immature, i turned on my laptop; visited this cafe's site and read some of the stuffs of my online writer-friends. And this is when i had come across a profile of one - very old - lady who was posting very worth reading stuffs. Right after reading and leaving a review on her post, I and she got involved into some nice nice conversation and exchanged a very long thread. Me being immature by age at that time; in those long years, i really don't remember the exact conversation but the words that i can recall and will always stay live in my head are: 

She said, "You are very young.. and it's good. You have a lot of time and things to do in your life." 

And i texted replying her back n saying, "I know old woman, i will never be aged... neither do i want to be old. I want to stay young forever." And i laughed and cracked a joke. 

She got me a smiley emoji.. and saying: "You will become old when time comes. Time never stops for anyone, sometimes it walks fast.. so sometime it takes time - this is what just we think - but the time come when it comes and it goes when it goes... and in between that, you miss old time and become old-er. I also used to think the way you think but age and experience and time are real truth you live in. Bless you." 

At that time, i cursed her and wondering: "how rude is she and why she wants me to become older!" 

But as time accumulated by, i realized that she wasn't rude neither did she want me become old, she was just speaking the truth that she always passed throu' or is keep walking throu' already.

  1. Never apologise and excuse yourself...your work/words amazing and yes...time...waits for nobody...it’s like running water that never passes over same spot twice....we too need to grow/change with time ...as the river flows...taking from life and each new area/learning experience what we need...why would we want to be caught in time where nothing changes where there no growth which in turn brings wisdom unleashed....🌹
