A nameless feeling..

People, lucky enough like me, get a college education. So what's the big deal? Everyone gets that. But I wish I could go and ask 'everyone' their feelings about college..
Those amazing years of life. The reason why the post is titled 'A nameless feeling' is because I have no name for the feeling I get when I think of the college days gone by. Some call it 'nostalgia' and some attach the tag of 'memories', but how can I call it my past when those days, each and every moment that I lived in my college, still breathes and thrives within me.
I have started learning the guitar these days, and I tried my hand at this very famous song 'Purani Jeans aur Guitar', and trust me- the feeling was mind blowing. While singing the song, I closed my eyes and I was able to visualize everything as if it always was there, and as if I have never been away from it. The feeling was so beautiful that I had goose bumps on my hand while singing that song. Now what do I call such a feeling? A feeling of absolute and utter love for the days gone by whose images still keep popping up in my head. When I left school, I hated the fact that I had to go to college. This is because school had different kinds of memories attached to it. And now that I have left my college, I realize I was so wrong. Each phase of life has its own uniqueness and because the days of my college gone by are the recent most right now... it will take some time to get out of this nameless feeling...
