Maturity? Or Ageing?

Is it the sign of Maturity or it’s simply nothing but AGEING?

At least, until a decade ago, to my wife, every travel with me , till reaching the Central Station and seating in her alloted coach had been more than a watching thriller movies or reading thriller novels.

Invariably all the time, after locked home, after we got seated in to auto or taxi to catch our train, my wife’s hands used to handhold her heart, and I used to Drive the Driver …”go fast…”, please…go fast, etc..

Invariably all the time, we both of us used to run 🏃‍♂️towards our compartment with luggages on our both hands and 90% of the time, we used to get on in to 2 coaches ahead of our alloted coach, used to start walking🚶‍♂️inside the train by nudging all the standees and finally reach our 💺

Invariably all the time, my wife used to utter a first word at me, after seated, after massaged her palpitating heart, after gulped few cups of water,…

“It’s the last time, I travel with you. Hereafter, I won’t move out of home, and you go wherever you want.”

Cut the shot here and zoom the camera today….

I type this writing after reached Sathapti Express well ahead of time, reached 6.02 AM, seated in my C3 coach and the train is scheduled to departure @7.10AM.

Last night, everything was packed, got up at midnight 4AM, chased the call 🚕 driver by not sitting inside the car, but sitting comfortably at home, with simple shoulder bags for both of us…bla…bla…

After seated, my wife had extended her hands at me and appreciated me with good words saying, “You GOT MATURED.”

(My mind voice: she thinks as if she had been matured since she had taken birth.)

( I could hear your mind voice that this mind voice, not uttering the same is the real maturity of all husbands and not reaching train on time.😜)

After living with my wife for 3 decades or so, I realized that these folks had been misunderstood as

“seeking convenience and comforts in every aspects of life is known as the sign of maturity.”

To me it is nothing but AGEING.

Missing train or catching train at the neck of the moment is real experience and this kind of today’s travel is utter boring.

Guys, you please decide yourself whether I got matured?

I don’t think so.I feel, just aged and body and mind are seeking comforts in every aspects of life.

Train started.

Ageingly yours,
🙏Ramu🙏
