About Me

There is this question that emerges quite frequently; “About me”. It is quite tough to answer this question in a short time frame, briefly yet precisely, casually yet making a firm impression of our being. When is the last time you asked this question to yourself?

Every individual that has been created is a unique being in him. The purpose of our existence is simple: we have to leave a footprint. Thus, you have to know who you are, what you are and what is in you that he does not possess.

I was a cute little fellow born in the beautiful city of Lucknow. I grew up there and was guided by Dadu. My every wrong step was righted; every dark path was lit for me. At 10 years of age I shifted to Delhi. The pangs of separation from my birth city, from my grandparents and from my childhood memories were hard to bear. But life goes on. New place new rules, new opportunities. I worked my way through life. There was success and lots of failures. Anyhow, I completed high school. Life brought me through many ups and downs, but I have no regrets. I am in college now. This is my life.

At 18 years of age, I no longer hesitate to answer the question, “Who am I“. Well who am I…. I am an average teenager trying to improve the answer to this question every time I think of it. Though officially I have been marked as an adult, I still find time to fulfill my childish needs. I am melted by music. I love to learn. I hear to listen and I speak to be listened. I believe in what I think. Rules are meant to be broken, so I never make rules, I never restrict myself. Whatever I do or speak is what defines me. This is me. But still as always, the definition of Aditya remains incomplete……
