It has been a long time since I wrote my last blog. It seems
words flow freely in times of great turmoil or peace. For previously when I
used to write, it was my uncertainty about my future that spoke out and now
being back at home after a long time, feeling the same old sense of belonging
to a place made me revisit my past writing days. It has been days since I felt
the peace of mind without any haste of the world. Well it had to have an effect
on me.
So here I am again.
It seems only yesterday I left for joining in an IT company
to a place totally different then what I am used to. It seems that time has
flown, changing many things, most of all, me. Yet sitting in my home writing this
blog it feels nothing has altered since last year when I left Delhi. But my
heart knows that it has.
It has been the most important year in my life so far. For
it was my time with the outside world (as it is called), without the guidance
and help of my friends and family. It was a year of reckoning where I have to
prove my worth.
I did okay, I think (Hope I am correct!).
I meet with people entirely different than me and I learnt a
great deal from all of them. It opened my eyes to how much I still need to
learn. I made some great friendships along the way. It warmed my heart to know
people who were born and bought-up completely different from what I was. I understand now that under the differences
we all are actually the same inside.
I hope my new friends
will go a long way with me.
I sit and look back all the time that has passed since I
left Delhi for Bangalore and I say to everyone there is no place like home. It
always feels comfortable and secure no matter what. The very air seems so
refreshing and pure (Thanks to godsend rain). I was telling a friend that I
like Delhi more compared to Bangalore when I got an amazing reply “You don’t like
the place, you like the people in it”. This pretty much sums it all.
What my friend implied and with which I concur is a fact
that I have in Delhi some special friends and family that make my life
meaningful and who I treasure above everything. For life without these special
people will be dull and gloomy indeed. So to see them again after so many
months gives me the will and strength to carry on. With these people, a year is
not enough for talking till my heart’s fill and a moment is sufficient to look
at them and understand that our bond is strong as ever.
It’s good to be back. After a long time it finally feels
like home.
Today life is good.
Today life is good.
Cheers!!
Obsessed with Delhi or the people? Anyway the weather in Bangalore and the city itself is not that bad either!!
