Sneha asked Aditya, "Why don't you join the group as a Bassist for this show?"
Aditya replied, "Are you mad? I need to study now... our exams are two months away..."
"They are two months away...besides practicing for this show won't take up more than two hours of your time each day for the next three weeks!"
"I can't... besides after I settle as a doc, I'm going to form my own rock band after age forty..."
"Sure, people would listen to a new band with members over forty..who do you think you are? Member of the Beatles? " The she asked him (similar to Katrina in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara?) "How are you even sure that you will live past forty?"
Aditya did the mental math... how many hours he would lose in practicing and traveling each day... reluctantly he picked the bass and walked towards the band.
The first song they practiced was 'Breaking the Law' by Judas Priest....to his surprise, Aditya the bassist gelled in perfectly.... giving him a thrill he never had experienced before.
In our rat race to achieve greater academic and professional excellence.... we often forget that we are getting older... and older... and the thrills to be experienced in our youth and middle ages... can never be experienced ever again... when we would have the time and the money to do whatever we like... we might run out of gas....
Your views before the verdict... The Science Redemption... coming soon Novel#2
