Then. Now. Both the words having significant meaning. But when the two are put together, their implication gets multiplied by proportions soaked in years. OK, let’s do a quick reality check of my life gone by:
THEN: Orange flavoured ice candy
NOW: Chocolate shake topped with lavish helpings of ice cream
THEN: Hero BMX
NOW: ROKR E6 with the ‘snoop’, 2GB memory with touch-screen interface and 'a host of other features'
THEN: Tom & Jerry
NOW: The Matrix
THEN: A black and red pair of Bata Bubblegummers
NOW: A black and red pair of Pumas
THEN: Gully cricket
NOW: Pocket tanks
THEN: I love you Rasna
NOW: Cheers to a Kingfisher beer
THEN: Dictionary/Dad
NOW: Google
THEN: Lunch box
NOW: Pepperoni cheese pizza
THEN: Poem recitation
NOW: Pfaffing
THEN: Coins jingling in the pocket
NOW: Credit card swipes
THEN: Camlin HB pencils
NOW: Logitech Keyboard
THEN: Pocket money
NOW: Paycheque
THEN: Mental arithmetic
NOW: Business/category understanding
THEN: Teacher
NOW: Boss
THEN: Family dinners
NOW: Pubs & nightclubs
THEN: Winter vacation
NOW: Weekend
THEN: 'Happy birthday' parties
NOW: Night-outs
THEN: Friends
NOW: Relationships
THEN: Parents
NOW: Career
THEN: Innocence
NOW: Ignorance
I guess life was much much simpler then than it is now...
