Today I went to school for the last time.
This year had plethora of things which I did for the last time like writing an unit test exam.Wearing my summer uniform for the last time and then switching to my winter uniform.Going to the school trip. Eating at the school canteen. Maybe I met many of the people for the last time.
This year had a plethora of things which I did for the first time. I wore a saree for the first time for our farewell. I gave Pre-Board examination for the first time.
There are many more lasts and firsts but what it made me realise is that life has been full of firsts and lasts there was a day when I took my first step, and spoke the first word and there will be a day when I take my last breath finishing my quota of air.
When I walked out of my class where I have spent hundreds of memorable moments for the last year and into the corridor and out of the gates of the place where I came everyday and learnt to make myself and which made me what I am today.This is the place where I met some of the best people I have ever known. I gave it a good look. It stood there tall and handsome dressed in red and cream and it seemed like a proud craftsman looking at the piece of art on which he had spend years in making and detailing.
Whenever I will cross the lane and see my school with a beautiful heritage and a glorious future it will be a walk down the memory lane and I will be full of gratitude for making me who I am. And it would still be proud and happy!
P.s. The year is an academic year.
