Blissfully ignorant period when we found immense joys in petty things! Recalling a few..


  • Finish off the homework before 6 pm, only to play the OUTDOOR games with friends

  • Every Saturday was so special, as it was the only non-school uniform day and the students were at their civilian best

  • We waited long to wear that new dress on the religious festivals

  • All the national festivals were celebrated in their true letter and spirit

  • Heavy power-cuts never really mattered as we were totally occupied with innumerable board and oral games

  • The regional movie telecasted on Sunday evenings was something I never wanted to miss

  • Recalling TV shows like Surabhi, Jungle-book, Bharat ek khoj, Chitrahaar, Rangoli, Fauji, Dekh bhai Dekh, Malgudi Days generates fresh positive vibes till date

  • Reader’s Digest and Youngworld were must-reads

  • Religious festivals had sweetness in the air and the day was meant for meeting elders to seek their blessings

  • The 10rupee notes that were given by the guests as a token of affection

  • The Earthen Piggy banks used to store coins is of special mention

  • The pride in our eyes when we stood first in school

Feel free to add to the list..
