This is the place where you can see human life from different aspects. Whether you demand to see the struggle of life or the emotions of departure, golden days of teenagers, or the rush of adults. You have everything to experience, also many of us experienced them through ourselves, as I did. Well wait a minute, I will be reviewing them one by one.
This is a Railway Station and an inter-city train is standing, that's the picture I clicked a few weeks ago. Haven't used it yet, saved it for this writing from that day to write on the realization I got there.
When was my first train journey? Ummmm, at the age of ten or twelve with one of my aunts, that little kid was so excited and afraid as well as with the overall experience. Waiting for the train to arrive, rush of people onboard, and finally, it's moving on its way taking us. He is matching everything with the paragraph "A journey by train" he read in his book. That was a short one, it finished before his excitement and thirst could be fulfilled. No problem, that first experience is written with golden words in the diary of his memories.
As a teenager, it was a medium to get lost with friends to the unknown. Train journeys are affordable, to some extent, it's free, hehehe. Neighbor cities were the targets for us to visit when we bunk school. Hehehe. Roaming in the station while wearing a school uniform with fear that someone might spot us. Those days!
After my teenage years, I left home for the very first time for study purposes. Moved to another city for an admission war, used to leave my city for weeks and months, those departures were very sad. Guess what, on vacations while returning home, I would see many stations and stoppages but none could give me the feeling like this one. Once I saw entering this one, my heart would be filled with love and emotions, yayyy I am back to my home. Some feelings are beyond description.
These are some of my experiences, even now if I stand there for a moment I will be able to picture all of these moments on others. Children waiting for the first journey with lotta excitement, teenage groups making their moves, families waiting to say farewell, and so on. Even the tea-stalls beside the roads there was a great place for our hangouts, time has changed, we moved from that carefree life to today's one. But those stalls are not empty without us, our next generation filled that gap, while visiting that place I could picture the same old memories through them.
I did mention about struggle? Ah yes. You know, I could see the people who are living under the poverty line, some are begging, some doing many odd jobs there to earn the daily bread and butter. You can see, even the homeless people take this place as their shelter during night. During winter when we are late for returning home, we could see them making their place to pass the night.
This is a place of mass people, different people from different places go through here. All of them have their own sets of life and rules, running with their headache that you would also feel on seeing the rush of some people. This is a place where you can have all kinds of feelings and see the life from different angles.
