The Happening
OK. Another post after a really long time. Not that I did not have anything to post about but off late have been wondering whether I write for myself or for the world. Because there is so much to write to/for myself but nothing for the world. Reasons aplenty-articulation, confusion and some amount of secrecy.
A lot is happening. In me and around me. Simple things first..
We moved into a new house. A huge room to myself …. actually the whole floor to myself. Sounds like a reason to celebrate?? Not really.. I miss my old room which was more like what I needed. But change is supposed to feel good. And it will.
Career planning going on. I know it is scary. Never wanted any other influence to determine what I should do. But there is lesson I am still learning – I am what I am because of all those influences. Some mild some really strong.
Friends at work are back. They were majorly travelling (business +personal trips) all of last quarter and it feels good to see everyone back in the office.
So many long weekends. Just one trip. Went to Ooty first and then to Coimbatore to the Isha Yoga Centre. It was a different world. One of my best trips( maybe I say it everytime but this one was one heck of a trip!). But just realised I carried my mind even there. So it actually could have been better.
Aditya is back and Anil is coming. Two of my closest friends who were distanced because of a dream. The American Dream. The nightmare of recession and ‘Hindustani mitthi ki Khushboo’
is drawing them back. I am not complaining.
The domain of my head. Things have changed. I have changed. I am not able to recognise myself sometimes. What was then and what is now . Things are not the same anymore. Feels good sometimes and also feels bitter sometimes.
There is a deep sense of loss. Something inexplicable.
But I will be strong. Strong like never before. Feels good to think about what I am going to be. It is all about getting there …sooner or later. But the idea of it is exciting…Really.
And there is a last minute entry- There is MAGIC at home and it is something I just needed.
