ELOPING WITH THE SELF

I remember the tale about the bird phoenix when I remember him, His name is Dilip, one my good friends. I always admired him for his creativity and memory power. Being lost and being inert troubled him. Now he just went away leaving behind everything and not keeping in touch with 99% of his friends. He started a new life in a new city with a new friend, joined the course he desired.
In fact, there is a tendency for every one to elope from what we are, to correct our mistakes and begin life anew. I always loved the lyrics of a song from the movie 3 idiots:
“Give me some sunshine,
Give me some rain,
 Give me another chance,
Wanna grow up once again.”
People find this sunshine and rain in different ways. Some want a new environment; some want a continuation of the present… I always desired a new environment, an eloping with myself as Dilip did, and I envied him to an extent. But, why should I envy him? Life has given me a wonderful opportunity to explore myself in a new light, a position where I thought I would never be because of my unsociable nature. I feel I can get my sunshine to grow if I desire, where ever I am. I have found out the sunshine and rain for my heart. And, I feel that it would be like insulting me if I compare me with others or want to change this state.
