A Glimpse from the Past – A Memory to Cherish


Today, after coming back from college, I opened an old file that I hadn’t looked at in a long time. As I flipped through the pages, I found a drawing I had made around six years ago. The moment I saw it, so many memories rushed back to me.

That time of my life was so peaceful. There were no worries, no stress, no pressure, just pure fun and happiness. I used to spend joyful days with friends and family, laughing, learning, and enjoying every single moment. Life was simple, and our hearts were lighter.

Seeing that drawing made me realize how sweet those memories are. Even after all these years, I can still feel the happiness from those days. It’s amazing how a small thing like an old drawing can take you back in time.

This made me think deeply. We should really enjoy every moment of our lives. We can't go back to school, sit in the same classroom, or relive those days. Life gives us only one chance, one set of moments, and it moves forward, never backward. So we must live fully, love deeply, and enjoy every little thing. Later, we shouldn't look back with regret, thinking, “I wish I had enjoyed more.”

As the famous writer William Wordsworth once said,

> “Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive...”

Childhood and student life are like that blissful dawn — full of light, laughter, and hope. Let’s hold on to those memories, and more importantly, let’s create beautiful ones now.

Live every moment beautifully. Life is a gift, unwrap it with joy.

Our CA2 Assignment Turned Into a Refreshing Experience

Image
A couple of days ago, we had our General Elective (GE) class, and for this semester, I chose Botany.  Our Botany faculty, Richard sir, gave us an interesting task for our CA2 assignment to maintain the college garden. It wasn’t just a simple “do it and leave” kind of thing. We were asked to clean up the garden area, pick out dry leaves from the pots, remove unwanted plants, water everything, and even plant some new flowers in the empty spots. The idea was to give the place a fresh, new look. One cool part of the task was that we had to create a small garden map, planning where to place things so the whole layout looks more organized and creative. Our team of students really got involved. Even though it was sunny and hot, we didn’t really care — we just got into it and worked hard. And honestly, I enjoyed every bit of it. I’ve always liked gardening. There’s something peaceful about cleaning up a space and making it look neat and green. Being around plants just makes me ...

A Moment of Epiphany

Image
                                                                        In literature, an epiphany is a brief, powerful moment where a character experiences sudden insight or realization. Writers like James Joyce often used such moments to reveal the hidden emotional depth of ordinary life. Today, I had a moment like that myself. I began the day feeling low, emotionally heavy, missing someone I hadn’t seen in seven months. He’s someone who once meant a lot to me. We were good friends. That feeling of longing stayed with me all morning. I didn’t exactly pray, but my heart kept wishing to see him again, just once. Then, at 12:35 PM, while walking, something unexpected happened. I saw him. Just like that. He crossed my path. Our eyes met for less than a second, and we didn’t say a word. But in that ti...

Confidence in a Little Color

Image
Lately, I’ve started taking more care of myself, especially in how I present myself to the world. For the first time in my life, I’ve begun using a little makeup. Just a bit of lipstick or eyeliner. Nothing too heavy. But somehow, even that small touch makes me feel more confident. Not because I need to hide anything, but because I feel more in control of how I show myself to others. Some people are confident without makeup, and that’s beautiful too. But for me, this small change has become a quiet celebration of self-love. It’s not about pleasing others, it’s about enjoying the process of becoming a little more me. In literature, many characters go through transformations. Cinderella dresses for the ball, Eliza Doolittle learns to speak like a lady in Pygmalion, and even Jane Eyre learns to carry herself with quiet dignity despite her plain looks. These changes don’t erase who they are inside, they only help the world see their strength more clearly. Wearing makeup doesn’t...
