Growing Up

Whether its growing taller, wiser or stronger everyone is always exited in some growth. Just a while back i was talking to my friend and she was so happy that she grew like few cms over the summer. I, of course, didnt really bother about that since im taller than her. But that made me realize, if people take pleasure in little things, why cant i? The saying goes, little drops of water make an ocean. Its these little things in life that make us who we are. Long back when i used to pick up all sorts of things on the ground, i would go home and wash these little nick nacks and keep them on my shelf. Now if i find a bottle cap on the road ill just kick it around. With maturity, ive lost my ability to cherish every little thing. Now if its big, its better. I used to have a small mp3 player, then i wanted an mp4, i got and mp4 and then i wanted the ipod, i got the ipod and then i got the iphone, i got the iphone and now i want the ipad. I still see successful people using tiny items like pocketknife with a pen, insignificant mp3 players. Small things make a difference and they shouldnt be left aside as if they were nothing. Our lives are made in these small hours and these little wonders.
