I... allowed my memory to journey back to the days when I was a boy of ten, full of health and optimism, when my wonder at the great game of living had yet to give way to disillusionment at its shabbiness.
Ruskin BondI have come to believe that the best kind of walk, or journey, is the one in which you have no particular destination when you set out.
Ruskin BondHow evanescent those loves and friendships seem at this distance in timeโฆWe move on, make new attachments. We grow old. But sometimes, we hanker for old friendships, the old loves. Sometimes I wish I was young again. Or that I could travel back in time and pick up the threads. Absent so long, I may have stopped loving you, friends; but I will never stop loving the Day I loved you.
