I would
like to share one of the episode from my life. Who knows, this may be the first
stepping stone for my autobiography ;)
Like every
engineering student, I too need to do my final year project. To be frank, I had
no other choice. Where on the earth, I can go other than project centres. Many
of my friends planned to do their project in Industry. So we too tried and with
the help of my friend's relative, got the opportunity to do my project in TNPL,
Karur.
Four
batches from my college doing the project in TNPL. Some of my friends stayed in
friend's home. We totally seven members shared a house in Velayudhampalayam, a
small town near Karur, as we had to be there for a month.
Initially
I felt like a fish out of the water, as we had water problem for both drinking
and bathing. Though I was staying in hostel for past three years, I didn't
faced a situation similar to this. Contrary to my friends, I am a bit reserved
character, so initially I felt like out of my element. But later on, found my
feet's there and had many boyish funs.
I had
visited my grandpa's home for vacation, but that doesn't even longs for 10
days. This is the first time am staying in a rural place for a month.
Beyond my
thoughts, I lived the life of Riley. Starting from bathing to sleeping, we made
use of the every resource available. First time ever, went to night show for
movie. Felt the night breeze and chillness, while moving in bike (triples) at
2am. Tried to reunite my friend with his lover. Played cards till when we felt
to sleep. Still the night walk we had at 3 am remains fresh. First time bathed in
river and had the time of my life there. Fishing becomes the part of our life.
Visited Lord Murugan temple for "Thaipusam" festival and got
the opportunity to pull the temple car. Captured awesome
sceneries from top of the mountain. Went to friends home and had heavy lunch
couple of times. Also I have to say, learnt few things regarding project. Got
the industrial exposure and came to know how the works will be done in an
organization.
In between
all these enjoyments, also experienced few more things. One day, I went to
temple near the place where I stayed. An old man, enquired about the purpose of
our visit and blessed us. I had visited many new temples in Coimbatore, no
one had ever bothered me. Enquiring about us doesn't a matter, as everyone
would be curious to know about the new people in their locale. But an unknown
old man blessed us in the same society, where many others are waiting to see
when our rivals will fall down.
We have to
walk nearly 300-400 meters to have food in good hotel. Whenever I was
indolence, I used to go to a street side hotel, where Paniyaram available. I
paid the regular visit, so developed a good bond with the lady who running the
shop. One evening, when I went to have food only
10 paniyaram available, and it was bought by someone else. She
asked me to wait for some time, so that she will cook more paniyaram. At
that time, landlord of the shop came and asked her to
parcel paniyaram. She said that, first she will parcel for me and
then only for him. She need not have to say like that. If she asked,
I will wait for some more time. There are some shopkeepers, who will make us to
wait, and keep doing things for their regular customer. This lady at the other
side, made her landlord wait, only reason was he came after me. People out
there don't show any priority, that sounds good to me. This is one more
quality, I found in them.
There was
also dead happened near the house we stayed. Right from morning to evening, the
street was filled with peoples. Speakers were kept all over the place and
continuously they played songs. This is the rare scene to see in our city side.
Many people won't attend the death scenario, as they have to bath after coming
from there. Life is going like this in our area.
These are small
small habits that are counting worms. I felt these sorts of humanities are
dying with our previous generation. Don't know what to blame or whom to blame,
but ours and upcoming generation have to learn the morale of life from our
predecessors.
There are many more things, I wanna share, but don't know how many of them will read till this. Atleast I want everyone who are reading, to learn what life teaching to you rather than getting confused with those stuffs. Not only I
enjoyed the most but also learnt various lessons to be the better person from
where I am.
Keep
Smiling :) Stay blessed :)
