The Backbenchers

Numbers & scores are just that – numbers & scores – dry and without any life!

You will usually find it’s not the toppers who top the toughest exam called life with dazzling trophies and awards. It’s the mavericks, the back benchers, the rebels, the ‘think outside the box’ types who ACTUALLY live life! They have a myriad of interesting life experiences, they learn fast, they are the real Sanju babas who actually go for it!

When you have school reunions, you meet someone after couple of decades later, someone you thought would reach for the stars during your school days but alas that’s not the case most times and you get disappointed and surprised….your hero back then is not a hero anymore in real life. You come to a conclusion- there are two kinds in this life:

1. Aapne zindagi ke maje liye (you had fun in this game called life…..)
2. Zindagi ne aapke maje liye (life had a real good fun with you)

There is a twist in the story meri jaan, my love….

I personally find the so called toppers usually really boring and without any life…..always found the backbenchers as the toppers of life, they are more interesting to talk to and are worth spending your time with – jo bahut jee jaan se khele….examples are all around us.

Picture abhi baki hei meri jaan….the game is still on!

Dedicated to all the lovers of life!!!!
❤❤❤❤❤
