Here I am, in Delhi's International airport ready to take my flight to one of the world's busiest airports which open the doors out into a city which is enriched with bulks of cultural exchange over decades. London.
Somewhere around 7 months ago, I was busy celebrating my birthday ,which is presumably my last in India for the few of the coming years. I didn't knew that it would be last one by that time. Then things took rapid and steep curves ,too rapid and too steeper that they went out of my control, left me as a silent spectator pondering with some bewilderment .
Earlier,I used to have an idea of how events would unfold in the following one week at least.That clarity always helped me to stay out of ambiguity. As said,"Clarity precedes success." But its 11.20 am now and I am not sure what would be this big time loser doing in a city that never sleeps once a millennium if destined to. Wandering aimlessly among the streets of London,with mouth of jaws being dropped half of the time,because of astonishment of the monumental creations and wondering when creators in sub continent would work such an astonishing builds some day. Never thought,education would make such a difference.
Noodlewok, Switch,blah blah...are the names of bake shoppes and juice outlets in the airport.I just feel so bland and left out of feelings to articulate. What exactly makes you feel so strangely numb? Change of place? Change of skin tone? Change of linguistic flavours? Cultural exchange?(never scared about cultural exchange as we had that experience at Lemon tea trillions of times). And now ,I notice this 'always self conscious bastard' wearing all the shirts that could fit his wardrobe at a time to want people to wonder about the count.
One of my glorious bastards said," along with the liberty ,comes the responsibility." Yes. they both do go hand in hand. Look at me. I have money. I have time. I have no people offending me from doing what they call anti social activities. Still I don't feel like doing them. Some thing is holding my back tight.
Till I figure out what it is, Good Bye for now!
interesting ending.
