Once upon a day...

That was the best day of your life.
A beautiful day.
The day which you will remember for long.
It was a moment which passed ever so swiftly and made the everlasting impression to make a difference.
Difference in you, your thinking, your everything.
That thought which dawned upon you like a canopy turning dark to gray to crimson to golden...to the bright color of enlightenment.
That thought which you knew was present, alive in a far, distant corner of your brain...patiently waiting for you to notice it, waiting for the time you will grasp its true essence, waiting for this moment.
That thought which was incomprehensible first, then became believable and then realistic then an aspiration  then your passion then your belief then your reality and then your reason to exist.
It came like a conqueror charging with his army, leading ten thousand of his men to assault an empire with nothing but two things in his mind : victory and the will to make it happen.
It came and it overcame and it became the ruler of his new won kingdom.
Sat atop the throne of your brain, this new thought changed your system from within.
 The cataclysmic wave that it brought shook you to the core and that was when you knew that nothing ever will be the same again.
It was the realization of having a purpose, a task to perform , a thing to achieve, an era to witness , to cross a milestone and to put a new one where no one have ever been before.
With that, came a discomforting doubt...are you up to it? do you have what it takes?
But the importance of it was too much to shrug it away. Then and there you made a decision, a solemn promise to yourself that you will wait for the time and until then, you will prepare.
Prepare for the task you were born to perform. And then you will succeed.
The way looked hard and rough, but you knew it is the only one that can take you across.
The people you care for, you will do this for them, you decided. You, amongst thousand. In some hostel room in the out-of-town campus of Juet, listening to your friend telling about his day, hearing nothing.
Or maybe sitting in some lecture theater looking at the screen and seeing something that is far, far away.
 The last piece of the puzzle joined others to make a picture that was way different than the one you  assumed looking at the pieces...and it was beautiful to look at.
It was the best day of your life.A beautiful day.A day which you will remember for long.
