Oh how we wish we could get back the little pleasures of life!
1. Star gazing.
Born and brought up in cities, the modern generation has absolutely no idea what the night sky actually looks like. Resort to pictures all you want but this is the one aspect of life that can never come back.
2. Sparrows chirping.
Thanks to all your cell-phone towers and radiation, sparrows are dying. It is extremely rare to wake up to a sparrow chirping by your window today and the little bird is seriously in danger.
3. Writing a letter.
It's the email age, and writing a letter is just another task. And that is why, if you ever receive a written letter, it becomes a memory, a special moment.
4. Making a landline call to your crush and hoping her dad doesn't answer.
This. Oh this.
5. Giving missed calls on landline phones.
Once again, to your crush. Or simply to irritate that horrid aunty in the building who wouldn't let you play in the evenings.
6. Being able to distinguish between changing cities due to a change in air.
You can thank pollution for this one. Have you ever felt the difference between the airs of a place while travelling? Give it a try when you're visiting your hometown. It might work. But in congested cities, everything smells the same. Smokey, mucky and icky.
7. Running barefoot on the earth.
Unfortunately, there's very little earth left to run on. It's all only concrete.
8. Pen pals.
Did you ever have a pen pal in your childhood? The fun of writing letters to someone new, understanding the person, and making friends. Oh the thrill!
9. Playing badminton with friends from the opposite building with the wall acting as the net.
Classic!
10. Holding photographs in your hand.
After that epic wait for photos to develop, you neatly filed them in the album, labelled each one and just held them remembering each memory.
11. Sipping tea while reading the newspaper sitting in the balcony.
In today's world, there's just no time to sit back and relax and appreciate the finer things in life. Sitting quietly and sipping tea early in the morning and just spending some me-time is a concept that seems to have disappeared.
12. The thrill of finding something after hours of research in a library.
With a library in everyone's pocket, real libraries are dying out. We seriously wish we could go back to the days where 'Google it' was not the solution to every problem.
13. Receiving coins as blessings from your elders.
Now even beggars on streets look at you in disgust if you give them pennies instead of a higher amount. Your kids get wads of cash from you. But you can never replace the thrill of your parents giving you 50 paise or 1 Re coins to add to your piggy bank and you collecting those coins over months and years!
