Human beings have the capacity to be ironic, sometimes. Every once in a while, the most unlikely people can rise above themselves to come forward and help, and sometimes they fall short. Because it so happens that we lose track of what these two years are really about, and being bitter over life’s disappointments in the past and letting that interfere with your present warrants taking time out and thinking about what this really means to us. For the better or worse, our batch is another picture in the life of the institute.
“Class of 2019”
But do you ever wonder about the strangers in the background of that picture? We could have been a part of someone’s life when their dream came true or the reason that dream ceased to exist. Did we try too hard to get what we wanted or were we somehow destined to get it and the shot took us by surprise? The strange thing is, we don’t even realise how each of our lives collide in a span of two years, because our entire lives are like a series of photographs. Time flies by and as you grapple with deadlines as a team, you’ll realise how fleeting happiness is.
“Happiness comes in many forms - in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else’s dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It’s okay to let yourself be happy.”
