Strawberry Dreams!

When I was younger, I always had a ready list of frivolous things to buy. I was a reasonable enough kid to know that it did not make sense to ask my parents to buy those things for me. But there was always this private promise to myself that I would buy those things when I made my own money and was hence was more deserving.

Now I am older, not ultra rich but I make my own money and can buy those things. But the operative word is older now. Old enough to see many other things that I should be buying instead. Old enough to know that I don't like the item so much anymore. Old enough to know that I won't like the item forever.

As we go through life.. there are things that we discard .................memories, friends, habits (good and bad) and our frivolous selves. When do we end up?
