Love in college days

The college days in our life perhaps have a different significant. More or less whoever, had the privilege to study in college must miss those golden days of their lives. During the period of college days we seemed to have come to know life anew. Most importantly falling in love in college is a fact of life that makes those days more special.  Whenever the memories of those beautiful days’ peeps in my mind I rewind back to those beautiful days. For some of us the love story of college life saw the happy ending and for few it did not quite take the desirable shape. Now, when we almost reached the phase of life when we have learnt to take decision or consider things more wisely than ever before, those unforgettable college days likely to be the most precious bygone days of my life.

Now when we have come to a position in life, that we no longer struggle to choose the right path to lead our life at, often those beautiful memories of college days evoke in my mind. Spending the first Puja with the special one always remain one of the special memories of my life that could never be replaced by anything. The temptation and excitement of holding the soft and pity hand for the first time on the day of Astami, while she was wearing Sari and I was in traditional Punjabi, may remain as a glittering sight of my life.

Nowadays, after having spent a tiresome day in a summer afternoon, when the sun shine ablaze and I endure that struggle in every moment, seldom the memories of the college days take me through the gallery of those past days. During the summer under the scorching sun, escaping the class when we used to walk by the avenue and both were hiding our emotions in a romantic smile seems to be one of best days of my life. Sharing food from the same plate and often caught her soothing gaze while eating was a common practice that I loved a lot.

The tender touch of her hands, when she used to cling to my hand while crossing the river, is still so vivid in my mind that I frequently visualize those scenes in front of eyes till date. The cold nights of winter when we whispered over phone for late at night and saw dreams of spending the future together; made the college days more special for me. Those days were indeed the best days of my life.

Life has changed and with that the people, who once were so special to me, lost in time. But those memories are still quite glittering in mind. Now when life has taught me the cruelty of reality and instilled the courage in me to face the reality with practicality I learnt to view life from a different point of view. However, with all due respect to the lesson that life passed on to me as a common phenomenon, I still enjoy to look back and savor those golden days of our college life.
