After a long day at work, I sat in my room and had dinner. The taste of the roti and sabji, made by the didi(cook) who comes every day, was the same as always, but with each passing bite, it began to feel dull. My mind started to wander towards memories of the mess in the hostel rooms during my college days when my friends and I used to sit and eat together, sharing plates and enjoying each other’s company.
But now, in this city, it seems like work is all that’s left. My friends’ priorities have changed with time, and while they may have time to meet after work, other things take precedence. I find myself feeling isolated, hesitant to ask for get-togethers knowing I’ll likely receive a negative response. I’m not necessarily sad about this, but it’s just a change that’s happening in all of our lives.
The daily grind of work, deadlines, and tasks like JIRA tickets, raising PRs, and running builds, can make days, weeks, and months pass by in the blink of an eye. It’s like sitting with friends in college, not realizing when morning comes. Time slips away, and we don’t even realize it. Two years have passed, and many of my friends who were once close to me are now far away.
Rather than reaching out to each friend individually and saying “miss you bro”, I wanted to share these thoughts here. This blog page was created for the purpose of friendship and camaraderie, and I hope to use it more frequently to connect with everyone at once. this is a way to connect with everyone at once.
