"Impatient Optimists"

So, I stumbled across a blog - www.writermehdi.blogspot.com with just one entry. Nothing special. Just another one expressing herself on digital. However, given the fact that she is 15, her thoughts, expressed in a raw manner seemed quite different for the girl of her age. Nope, not one of those digital kids who just upload fancy book pictures with fancy quotes. 

Today, I feel there are two kinds of kids in this world. 

one whose parents spend more time marketing their kid's creme educational upbringing. 

And another whose parents spend time helping their kid through primary school. 

one who, as a kid reads not because he/she likes to read but because it is fashionable to. 

and another who reads unknowingly. unaware of his/her own passion and addiction to reading. 

one who needs a digital gadget to read. 

and another who reads even from the torn pages of oil stained samosa packets. 

one who buys the best stationary to express in the most eloquent manner. 

and another who is always scolded for reading what is not the main text. 

one who reads and repeats. 

and another who reads and struggles to repeat the same text. 

one who gets good marks because of beautiful handwriting. 

and another who is not always appreciated for letting his/her hand wander at the speed of his/her brain thinking. 

one who is always so finely right, so wonderfully apt with the rules of the language. 

and another who always forget the spelling of neighbor, or a coma there and a full stop here. 

one who always has answers.

another who always has questions. 

one who speaks and then thinks. 

another who doesn't speak, because he/she is busy reading. 

one who grows up to be repeater. 

another who grows up to be a thinker. 

one who thinks and act just his/her age.

another who thinks and acts ahead of his/her time. 

one who grows up often to be another of 7 billion. 

another who grows up to be the one who rest of 7 billion look at. 

one who desperately searches his/her phone & relationships for his/her identity. 

another who grows up making his/her own identity. 

It is always a pleasure meeting the second kid. Always a pleasure. These are the "impatient optimists" of the future who don't even realize how much 7 billion of us need them.
