Social battery!

 Social battery!

“Maa! my social battery is low, I will call you tomorrow. Good night!” my younger monk said, while disconnecting the line. I knew he was tired, as the last two weeks had been very challenging. College  Literary Club was organizing a Declamation contest as a part of Environment Day Celebrations. The entire medical college was taking part, time was less and a lot had to be done.

On the D-day, I was waiting to hear the details about the event, waiting for his pictures and so on. Finally, when my patience was about to say goodnight, I dialed his number. Immediately, he answered. There was excitement in his voice, a sense of satisfaction, he shared few pics and then said, Maa! I am low on my social battery!” I was bemused, social battery? A new term for me.

I could hear him smile as he continued, “I was in touch with so many people, talking on phone, texting messages, coordinating etc. I am tired and want to sleep now. Good night!” I resonated with this term- Social battery, wished him well. My sunny boy now, President of College Literary Club has finally become a young adult.

I found this term endearing. Some people feel they are introvert, some are extrovert. Now, I see from a new angle. Every soul comes with a built in chip of 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB, 128 GB, so on and social battery is directly dependent on this. The beauty is one can always increase the capacity.

From now on, whenever, I have to be in a social gathering, I plan beforehand and keep my social battery fully charged. Happy charging ! Keep loving, keep caring ! Keep reading, Keep sharing.

Love Juju.
