Memories , Memento, Memorandum , Memorabilia ,Memorable ,Memorial

People start making memories as soon as they are born (only if they can remember both agony and joy of your parents). Memories are made life long.. Friends, parents, pets, objects, anything can contribute to it. Major part of primary school and teenage is spent accumulating memories from friends and parents, When you start knowing about nuances of life, discussing it with your parents, silly pranks and what not,, That is the  starting of memories mixed with innocence, care and tenderness.. (well some kids are quite oblivion to such things.. so, let us move further). As our school ends, people get emotional, drown themselves in the pool of sorrows and present each others with a memento known as "scribbling day" .. On this day, friends meticulously jot down all the memories on your shirt or t-shirt which they fondly remember..





As we graduate from college , we are teary eyes..Bidding farewell to friends and hoping to see each other every weekend after having an arduous week in office. Giving each other "memorandums" , emotional notes and poems because they know they will be soon drowned in pool of "memorandums" by their bosses so only these notes and memorandums will keep the friends close. Then during office hours, between those lovely memorandums , those lovely HRs and secretaries ( a bit of fantasy element.. haha.. :D) , we build memories.. (Fantasies or/and memories, different people, different take :D) .
 We we get married and then we get memorandum from our spouse to get the errands from nearby store.. Nobody will be interested in this so we can skip this part.. :p :p



Someday, maybe going through the attic, old boxes, we find pictures, clothes, etc and that is our  "Memorabilia moment" . We have a faint smile at that time, (chances are ripe that we would have got scolded when it got misplaced in the first place). But then we go on memory lane and remember all the good memories. We try to share those pictures with friends. I found the class photograph of my nursery class and shared it with my friends. Everybody was bemused and happy to see it. I found  class picture of class 12th and again i shared it. That pic got over 60 likes  and more than 300 comments.!!  Now there was some rib tickling comments on that. kick ass..!!.:D


Sitting on a rocking chair, suddenly you stop rocking  and  then you are smiling while sipping tea or coffee, (I know.!! all these years, it was booze that was making you smile but not anymore.!!).. Then you think how memorable your life;s journey has been. And that time ,you should be proud about your life.Head should be held high beaming with joy..

Seems too much like a movie?? Because everybody's life is not like this. ??True..But everybody's life can be 'made' into a movie.!! It is just that the director should be able to craft it in a splendid way..!! Whether life is joyful or sorrowful, it should be  like a good movie and with that it means in that limited time, your life should evolve in a magnificent way.. and in the end , people should be smiling at your memorial talking lengths about your grandiose life.
