When I was a small kid,
I remember going out
with my parents to see the
magic shows and circus;

I remember the time of
seeing Ramlila every year,
with the same excitement,
and felt there was something
new for all of us to learn;

How much excited we all
used to be, when at that
time, there was no TV or
even the mobile phones;

Now as a grown up,
when I look around me,
I find each one of us,
living in a virtual world,
not adding much values
in our life, as it used to be
when we were kids;

Everyone is glued to TV
or engrossed in their
mobile phones, it seems
we have all forgotten,
the true sense of happiness.
