IS IT WORTH IT??

Have you ever frustrated with your work, your responsibilities at work so that your superior doesn't come and shout at you. Have you ever felt the pressure of being good to family and friends just because your socially acceptable and that no one talks bad about you.

Here is something that happened to me. One fine day I was stuck in traffic and it was raining heavily. Deep down in my mind I was abusing everyone and everything happening in my life. It suddenly struck me that this is what i always wanted. As a five year old I saw my parents sleep till 9 a.m, but I had to get up at 6 a.m so that I could go to school. I always wanted to be an adult so that I could sleep till 9 a.m & take holidays whenever I wished to and as years past I grew up.
But, the biggest question is ' THAT IS THIS WHAT I WANTED??'

I realized that the only thing which troubled us as a child was our homework which we always wanted to escape on the other hand adulthood introduced us to powerpoint which makes us spend a lot of time on computer when we start working. Basically we start hating computer which we loved the most during our childhood
We lost our friends who cared for us, supported us, motivated us and most importantly had faith in us.They were replaced by our colleagues who were behind our ass so that they could be much better in this competitive world
Well, this reminds me of the competitions we had in school and this was the only time where we were competitive with each other.
Adulthood definitely taught us a lot of manipulative games but wasn't playing cricket, badminton, football better than this.
We lost our innocence, became mature, competitive so that we win in life. So that we prove others that we are better than them
I always waited for summers when I was in school and college because that meant holiday for two months but now I hate it because now I have to go to work no matter what
I hate rains as well, because if I have to reach somewhere for a meeting I cannot afford to get wet, but when I was a child I used to specially call my friends so that we could go down and enjoy rains

Somewhere, sometime maybe for a second we all might have thought ' I wish I could become a child again'
We might have realized that out of all the things that we loved as a child we probably hate most of it as an adult

The only question that I have is ' WAS THE ADULTHOOD I ASKED FOR WORTH IT'
