A blistering and glorious dawn of my life…

Every morning brings a new dawn and some unknown opportunities. Is it true or not? I don’t know the proximity of truthfulness in above idea but I do believe in it. Can anyone believe that someone waited whole night in order to view a glittering sight of a morning dawn? We did it…it was a marvellous experience with an unbelievable view; a view which pacify your soul and instantly render an unexpected salvation of mind. What more one can ask for…if a particular sizzling effect entrenched in a first day of a year? Undoubtfully, a morning dawn of 1st January 2006 was an impressive and unforgettable view for Sandeep Agrawal, I saw the natural beauty in its sheer hype. Previously, those scenes were visualized only in wallpapers and screensavers of our desktops and laptops. I ruminated that God wanted us to show his architect skills; as he was willing to reciprocate something crucial…that too…in an astonishing manner. His object was to convey "Whatever one creates with human mind; however, impressive or innovative it may be, one cannot surpass or even meet with the prerogative of almighty." He is the supreme creator who has a regulatory remote control through which he checks a functioning of the Earth.

The fascinating adventure initiated at 31st evening. We made a coherent plan to celebrate a New Year in quite an innovative way. A plan which was comprised of some systematic organized thoughts…that too…by balancing some inevitable concerns. On 31st December, at night time, we rocked a temporary fabricated floor made for our disco party. Subsequently, when clock scudded over 12:00Am at night, all HNLU’ites became busy in giving warm wishes to their near and dear colleagues and other appropriate personalities. The altruistic hugs were felicitating in a dappering manner, many people were dancing, some were enjoying as an audience; it was quite a happening scene. An attempt made by every individual to welcome a new year in their own diligent and distinct way; the sole object was to revive their struggling chore by filling some joy and pleasure in it.

Blimey! We also planned to celebrate New Year eve in an adventurous manner. The plan was to isolate our presence in some distinct but interesting places. Our itinerary for a particular evening was preplanned and we achieved our endeavour in a satisfactory manner. Erstwhile, we were in hostel, thereafter had rapture in college…Ohh…still some rapaciousness can be probed in our face which apparently reveals about an unquenchable thirst persisting for little more amusement. Therefore, we began our journey for a rocking place divulged as KODAR DAM. I must say ‘we achieved a lot even though we aspired for little through a felicitous planning’.

We had a comprehensive plan in our mind and the only requirement was to follow it in a systematic way. So, eleven friends in their five bikes loaded their curiosity-oriented gun with a bullet of ever-exploring spirit and initiated their extravagant consistent soaring effort to reach that glorious destination. Our target was 60km away from us and we have to reach their within 2 hours in order to view a magnificent sight. It was a night time; and it looked like that silent roads were waiting for someone to surpass them, trees at each side of roads were hampered by a heavy wind emanating consistent flow of cool breeze, some trucks overloaded with variety of goods endeavouring to achieve their target but we were in our bikes, riding just for fun and with an intention to explore nature. It may look comedy to many persons but it was a paroxysm of pleasure for us. We were singing and sharing our experiences at the same time shivering due to a very low atmospheric temperature. At the end, after taking a break for our high tea at midnight, we reached that particular Dam. I wanna reveal that at this appropriate break ‘First time in my life; I gulped a litre of milk without any hesitation…that too…in a first attempt’. I don’t know the reason for such an unrequited act but it was an experience to remember. Now, we can see ourselves in a particular Dam; an apparent benighted roads with a detouring route but we have surmounted it happily. There was a pin drop silence, dusky darkness, crumpling sounds of crickets and impressive flow of turbulent water in front of us. For me, a lot of expedient fuss was involved in formation of these unforgettable moments.

We were so eager to welcome Sun in our own passionate way. We knew the imperative of its glow and shine; by which it can easily terminate the persisting stygian view. Our patience was intact and we were enjoying in some or the other way. Suddenly, my trendy friend Kr. Kundan Singh Rathore became active with his digi-camera. He was so busy with his power shots to capture those unique sceneries. I must say ‘He was the man in demand at that time’. Anumeh and Bunty Bhaiya also had a camera in their costly mobile phones. I was just watching those friends with such a luxurious instrument in their hand and prayed to God that…plz plz plz…I also wanna similar instrument. Hey, I am not a greedy guy…ok…but those cameras just attracted my attention. I know that God will definitely hear me and I will buy an excellent techno-camera with my own hard-earned money. A swarming amount of trashy thoughts were wriggling and shuffling in my sober mind, at the same time, nature buzzed with a morning light. Ohh…my God…a scene of my life…it looked like those turbulent water must have been kissing multi-layered clouds. It is ineffable to convey those ultimate feelings; a marvellous, magnificent, brilliant, awesome, unbelievable, amazing, fascinating sight was apparent in front of us. My mind was stunned with such a dazzling scene, completely lost in some other dream world, a world away from human self-interest and unwanted greed for material objects. In that world, I entered into a process where virtuous particles of pleasure and happiness were floating in my mind which purified my soul with rare natural insights. I must say that it was the best morning dawn of my life. Believe me, before this dawn, for past week or so, I was very sad, even than I pretended that everything is normal. Something was bothering me a lot, at that time; I preferred to live lonely and was just struggling for survival. A guy who is ever enthusiastic was in depression, world seems like gloomy and dull. Somehow, I reinvigorated those coyest spirits and tried to balance my chore with little bit of internal satisfaction. At such time, if one collapse with surfeit happiness…Believe me…it means a lot.

Furthermore, we went to the other side of a dam, a small island like place. It turned out to be an interesting place for us where we had enjoyed through tracking, swimming and as always…with our creepy comedian acts. Anurag(a rare dancer and friend) was so busy with all types of his characteristic comedy and Tyagi(my close friend) didn’t felt shy to elicit a very harsh comment on his acts. I, Bunty Bhaiya, Saif and my Big B was busy in making various poses in order to capture those moments in a camera. Thereafter we spent some time in some felicitous place; I was busy in scribbling an exhaustive graffiti on sand, some were doing sincere swimming and others had enjoyed by glaring those resplendent sights. Before it could have become tedious for us, we decided to return back with a heavy load of esteemed and astonishing memoirs. The crucial moments of a journey was captured in some worthy cameras and one of the picture of Mr. Anurag was very very very interesting. I’ll give full marks to a photographer; a photo which can create miracle in international photography competitions. If he’ll allow me, I’ll definitely send it to some qualitative competitions. My sixth sense reveals that it may become a central thrust for a dozens of competitions.

It was like an unexpected adventurous journey which emanated a cheerful display of ever-exploring twists. These memories will always emblazon in my mind and I’ll remember it as ‘immortal memories’. I have a small poster outside my kitchen bedroom which conveys that "HAPPY MOMENTS – So let’s hope today, life brings its best moments together, to give you a wonderful day, that’s indeed your best forever."
