Events

By Laimayum Devika

Life is a series of events.

The moment of your first cry itself is an event.

The moment you learn to crawl is an event.

The moment you know how to toddle is an event.

The moment you learn to eat other than mother's precious drops is an event.

The moment you learn to say your first word is an event.

The moment you learn to say an alphabet is an event.

The moment you learn to write your first letter is an event.

The first day of your preschool is also an event.

The moment you learn to write your first word is an event.

The day you made your first friend is an event.

The first day of your school is an event.

The moment you learn to write your name is an event.

The day of your first exam is a nervous event.

Almost every exam and test in your life are events.

The day you started acting a little bit rebellious is another event.

The day you started thinking you are a little adult when you're not is also an event.

The moment you felt a different kind of love for another person is a beautiful event.

The day you got your first degree is an important event.

The day you got your first job is an event.

The day of your marriage is another exciting event.

The period of learning to live with a new family is also an event.

The moment when you watch another little life starting their own events is also an event.

Watching your own child living events after events is a beautiful emotional event.

Watching them watch another little life's event is also an adorable event.

The moment lying on your dead bed is also an event.

The moment of your last breath is an ending event for the living you.

But does events end their ?

Yes for you but not for the people around you.

Your ceremony after death is also an event.

In fact life is a combination of events. 

It's not just a simple journey.

But it's a collection of events which leads to shaping of you into you.

Even the times when you got sick are events.

It may not be to you but they are to people around you.

Every day even every moment of life is an event.

For events planned or unplanned are  beautiful.

Giving many emotions.

Some are exciting, beautiful, happy, hopeful.

Some are thrilling, nervous, fearful.

While some others are sad , agonizing, traumatic.

So why can't life be called an event when it has all these emotions in it.
