Dear Suresh,
yo
This is Ramesh I apologise for not meeting you during your visit to Hyderabad last
week. Unfortunately, I had a meeting in my office I remember how we enjoyed our childhood
days in Manikonda village Every day we played together in our garden. Our family was very
Our grandma used to give us fruits and biscuits. Our grandpa used to tell us fairy tales,
about the princes, warriors and the village boys
Now I am working at Microsoft, a software company, Hyderabad, as a Computer
Programmer. I am married and we have a child. My wife works at Dell, Hyderabad as a
System Analyst. You know city life is quite busy We start in the morning, leave our child at
the baby care centre and come back in the evening with faded faces. We hardly find time to
sit together. How disgusting! We work with computers, think like computers and live like
computers. We have forgotten our family.
I remember how we played gilli-danda, hide and seek and kabaddi. We went for
swimming in our local tank every Sunday
. Here we live in an apartment where there is no
room to play. Our flat is our world, just like a well for a frog! (The world remains unheeded.)
How happy we were in our school! We used to sit in the same row, did all the work
together and took part in the events. I remember how Padmanabhaiah Sir, our class teacher,
appreciated us when we got the first prize in District Science Fair. I remember how we
went on a picnic to Koil Sagar. There we went boating. Our tour to Srisailam was memorable
Still I remember the green hills full of trees that almost touched the sky! I remember the
roaring of the Krishna River at the dam. There is nothing here! I wonder at my
child's
silence. He always sits in front of the computer and plays games, never caring for anyone
I remember the happy moments when our uncle visited us. He brought toys and fruit
for us. Our aunt brought me a new dress for Dasara. How we enjoyed Deepavali! Still
hear the sound of crackers, I can see the rockets flying into the sky making the night full
light! Where are those days? My child doesn't know his uncle or aunt. For him, uncle an
neighbour are the same.
Sometimes I think of our childhood days. I think of grandparents, uncles, brothe
sisters
We missed them. We missed the joy of the family. We missed their company. We
missing many things in this busy life.
