Hey people. I just decided to write on my experience of watching a T20 cricket match between Delhi and Chennai at the Feroz Shah Kotla stadium last night. Dad had arranged VIP box tickets for the first time and being a middle class family, all the males were excited to go there. We hired a cab as Dad didn't want to drive after coming back from a tiring day at office for the evening match. We reached the stadium at sharp eight o clock after surpassing all the security checks. As soon as we entered the first ball was bowled. After grabbing the seats and watching the first ball we realised that we forgot to notice the luxurious treatment around us.Unlimited food and beverages being served by a five star caterer. Our box had limited seats and the people seemed sophisticated and simple. We had food, drinks and VIP box, still something was missing. And that was the zeal, the enthusiasm, the excitement, the hooting, the cheering. All this was deeply missed by me and my cousin. Suddenly I saw the other stand below us and felt envious of the ambience down there. They were ordinary middle class people like us, but they had something that neither money nor the VIP pass can buy. They were having the REAL FUN out there hooting for players and standing up after every boundary. And we were among the 'sophisticated' people sitting silently and holding our drinks in our hand. That's when I realised that although being sophisticated is good in daily life but there are some moments in life when you have to go beyond your sophistication and have some real fun and live the moment to the fullest.
So keep in mind the next time you go out anywhere, just be who you are and not what surrounds you. And prefer the quality of real fun over the quantity of money and status. Keep reading and stay simple and happy.
Alloyed Universe.
