During my childhood, some of the best moments were spent by the tranquil waters of the Satpura Dam reservoir. The serene beauty of the reservoir, framed by the towering Satpura ranges, made it a perfect retreat for adventure and reflection. In 2010, my friend Krishna and I decided to relive those treasured memories. We returned to the familiar shores, skipping stones across the water, just as we had done during our school days. It felt like stepping back in time, with each ripple in the water reminding us of the carefree days we once enjoyed.

Armed with homemade fishing sticks, fashioned from sturdy branches and rope, we cast our lines into the shimmering waters, eager for a catch. The peaceful atmosphere was only interrupted by the occasional splash of a fish or the soft rustle of leaves in the breeze. As we waited, our conversation drifted effortlessly from memories of our school mischief to the shared experiences that had shaped our bond. There was something timeless about sitting by the reservoir, surrounded by nature, with nothing but the simple joy of being in each other’s company.

Those quiet moments by the Satpura Dam in 2010 remain etched in my heart, a reminder of the bond Krishna and I shared, and the tranquility we found in the natural world around us. It wasn’t just about fishing or reminiscing—it was about reconnecting with the essence of our childhood and the simplicity of those leisurely days. The reservoir and the memories it holds continue to be a testament to the sense of peace and camaraderie that shaped our younger years.
