The other day, I was thinking of one of my college mates. He was a shy guy from a small town. Always been bullied by everyone else. You can relate him to a typical character form any movie in which there is a college-going-students' group and one that is bullied. And then I remember that particular guy got out of college and went for job and lo! - look at him now. He is all smart and out-going. Knows how to talk and behave. You know what i mean. Now this guy is not like before. You cannot bully him. And you cannot accept him as he has become. But, he has made his life more easy. Only now you will like him less. But he has gained a respect among his new acquaintances.
So, whatever change he underwent was for his own good. But the society around him wasn't ready to accept those changes. He broke his threshold and transformed. And this happens to all of us sometime. You feel this when you meet some of the old folks after 3-4 long years and you have this deep wrenching feeling inside your stomach about that guy. Your feelings have changed for that someone and so is his/her's. Obviously the intensity of disliking each other is directly proportional to the index of transformation.
Just thinking of breaking free!!
Are you ready?
