Turned 26!

Birthdays are special. A day in a year to ponder over and be thankful for all the good things in your life. A day which marks an anniversary of your tiny yet meaningful existence on this vast, crazy world. A day to be blessed for having beautiful friends, a loving family. It also however is a day which induces a little tinge in you that you grew a year older while chasing your life dreams. However, I believe below is true as I am turning 26 today.

Below memories flashes to mind today as I look back in my past:

• 15 years of sweet childhood life in a small town.
• 2 years of hostel life in bigger town.
• 4 years graduation from a small city.
• Currently working in Indian tier 1 city.

As you can see, just like most people in their 20s, I've lived good part of my life living away from family. All the time, missing people I value most in my life. However, you have to go with the flow as 20s are the time you build yourself up for a long life ahead. You learn things. You have a zeal for a never-ending pursuit of improving yourself. You try to figure out this bustling world around. And probably the only time in your life when you can afford to take risks.

So, here's the summary of my 20s till now. A little big things of bittersweet symphony that's my life.

• Graduation
• Good health
• A failed tech blog
• An Android app
• A decent job
• No heart breaks

Going by this, I think my life is turning out pretty great.

However, one thing is constant throughout. A deep yearning. A constant feeling of missing something. I still have to figure out what it is. Maybe 27 will have the answer.
