Where you were
-How you got lost in your memories -How did you feel afterwards?
No doubt, something is always going on in our subconscious mind and often people get lost in the world of imagination and it frequently happens with me also and let me share an interesting incident when I was completely lost in the memories of my schooldays. Actually, I completed my primary education at a school in my village but for my better education my family moved to city. Fortunately, few months ago I was travelling to the old village by bus for some reason and the bus passed right in front of the primary school where I used to study. I could not keep my eyes off the school as I got super exited to see it after long time. The building of school got bigger and in the huge playground there are more swings and rides for little kids. At this point I was totally lost in the memories of my primary school that how my grandmother used to accompany me to school every day and the fun that I had at school with my friends. We used to play for hours enjoying the rides and playing different games. Similarly. I also recalled my teachers who used to pamper me a lot and teach in a very interesting way. At this point, I thought I must visit school again and check out if the principals and teachers are still same. Suddenly, loud whistles blew my ears and when I came out of my virtual world. It was the bus conductor standing right in front of me and requesting me to leave the bus as the bus had reached its destination and was completely empty. I felt quite embarrassed and in hurry I picked my bag and left the bus, but I was quite delighted that my memories helped me to relive the childhood days.
