The day is finally visible on the horizon. The fear of living away from domicile has started to creep in and all the things that excited me to set off flying into distant lands today look weaker with cause. Every inanimate object demands from me a sense of attachment and nostalgia and almost every visible entity seems to be strong enough to evoke a deep-felt gratitude to this country that has made life so easily liveable and equally enjoyable!!
Iam sitting on my bed at this moment with a mixed tide of emotions and thoughts crowding the dimensional spaces of mind.Iam proud as at last there is connectivity in this little place which was almost insignificant a few years back. Today every kid here talks of ipods,fancy phones and mobile softwares.Although this must be one of the countable-on-hand connections but still there has been a beginning and the change is loudly evident in every facet of rural indian lifestyle.Be it mobile phones or internet or DTH or luxury cars - they speak and certainly loud enough.
Then there is the whole fear of living away from all of this commotion for almost 2 years starting sept 7th.Would i live in juvenile excitements of foreign land or would i succumb to adoloscent nostalgia of home-sickness and make my stay miserable? Iam sure of the former but the fear of the latter haunts nevertheless.
Then a more recent and temporary happiness is for all the guys who are coming down to my place for a brief stay. They are expected by tommorow night and we are looking to travel around Ooty,Bandipur and every distance we can cover in this little time. This trip is particularly saddening as it awakens old memories - memories of all those who would have never missed this trip had they the chance. Man how fast time flies by and how many tricks it does. Time is almost like an optical illusion, only much more real and unlike an illusion !! I know my thoughts are oxymoron-ish but well thats what i feel and is pretty much the truth.15 days from today at this time i hope i will be writing the same blog but from a new place among new people ,high on something new and with some new dope on my life.
But it is really dissapointing and discouraging to find such a sparse readership and almost no response to the blog and the posts. I hope these (dis)feelings will never be strong enough to have me stop writing as i honestly want conversations to go on and on for years and never stop.Imaging 5 years down the line this blog will be like a priceless memoir of all the the little things that we want to know about our college days.I just love this whole connectivity revolution brought in by the social media. It makes the world look finite enough to be thought about.
Just ended a conversation with Sumedh and Akshat and we were planning what ll we would do once they are here tommorow around this time !! Elaborate and exquisite plans on !
Ok. Now i must take your leave as there are many businesses unfinished that are craving for some worthy attention. Lot of things to wind up before i leave and many more things to initiate. I think life is meant to remain busy forever and ever. You will spend all the time wondering why do we remain so occupied !!
Cheers !!
