Transitional Discussions...

One fine day I am sitting with my friends in a cafe, where we discuss turn by turn about our love/forced love life. All of us get chances to speak, to speak our hearts out. We are overlapping each other's speech as the same things are happening with all of us. I am being observant & also I am contributing, however I realise that I am probably not so eager to speak so much as my friends are, I think hard the reason & realise that its because I already have shared my ongoings with my favourite friend - My Mother...that is a blessing I know.
However also I realise that with time passing we have got such welcome to the real world that now if we look back we feel the days when we used to fantasize about getting married, getting into an affair, earning money to blow it on shopping & partying were the best days. Now that the real world has embraced us, we are in a traumatic state & all the time are struggling to get a foot strong on the ground.
Around a decade back I remember discussing with my friends about games, favourite food, movies specially of Yashraj films & also because then Hollywood films were blue films for me. With my mother the only thing which happened were difference in opinions & I kept thinking then 'bloody generation gap'.
I wonder how has this transition taken place in just a decade. Is it because of the knowledge we have aqcuired? Is it because of the exposure we have got while 'struggling for survival'(which was supposed to be earnings to blow up to shop our favourites & to party)? or is it something wrong? is it normal?
Suddenly while writing all this my inner voice told me that all these things which I call the "transitional discussions" is nothing else but "growing up". Yes this is what it is!!
It is not far when we all will be driving our own cars of life & the traffic would make me probably claustrophobic but this is it...soon there would be another transition, a drastic one in our discussions & we will be dicussing how our inlaws have screwed our lives & how we love to be regulated by somebody who is important to us & then after a few days all these things will be stale & the new ones would be how our young ones feel that we are outdated & there is a generation gap between them & us. That is how the circle of life completes.......& makes us ...I am looking for a word to fit in here...is it 'miserable'?

Thats how beautiful growing up is...so do you find that interesting, beautiful??????
