They say the only thing permanent in life is
change. Life changes at a blink of the eye, in a nano-second. We
choose to imagine our lives as a monotonous copy of the previous
day and complain about the usual routine. We become blind, deaf
and mute to small changes in life that happen everyday.
Our tastes, our opinions, everything change
with the passage of time. Some changes triggered by the
incidences and happenings around us, some inspired and motivated
by books and the media, some forced upon ourselves as
necessities of the day, some happy and some sad. Changes, small
or large, may or may not impact our lives and of those around us
but there are changes that affect lives of numerous. There are
changes that inspire others to change and changes that make us
go, “Eew! I never want to be like that!”
Changes to me is just a progress report of
where I am going - my dreams, my visions and of course my past.
A few years back, I started this habit of having a list of my
preferences in food, music, colors, the things-I-need-to-have,
the places-I-need-visit and once every two months I update this
journal of mine. Today it is my own grown-up version of a
progress report from school. It keeps track of small changes in
life and at times I sit back and ponder what brought about that
change in me. It is amazing to see the progress of life and the
impact of changes.
Changes are a part of life, today and
forever. And these changes make life more meaningful,
interesting and motivating. As always change is happening in
Vini’s Corner. Unfortunately I was not able to update my column
for the past few months and now I am back for good with a small
change of pace, instead of being a weekly feature on
Chennaionline, Vini’s Corner will henceforth be bi-weekly,
updated every second Monday. I do hope, you continue reading
Vini’s Corner and enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing my
views.
I would love to hear from my readers. Please
