The Changed Person

The Changed Person

Sincere and Genuine apologies to all my readers for being the procrastinating freak who took five odd months to sit down and write. 

The interesting thing to note is how much these five months have moved me to reflect, understand and realize how much things have changed and the amount to which I have grown. With the last post and the last me writing (in August 2013) - placed in UK as a student whose worldly pressures were different, outlook to every new day was vague and the persistent thoughts of returning to my motherland which was immensely overwhelming. 

Having moved back to India - my motherland, the place which I am closely attached in every possible manner, the happiness knew no bounds. The first few weeks had been hazy with the overflowing emotions of my closed ones and the warm smell of home. As time passed, when home wasn't my comfort zone anymore, when time came for me to fly away again to my most favorite city - Mumbai which has always given me so much happiness and equally a lot of pain is where I landed quietly. The streets welcomed me as they had always done, however with minor changes which proved big when people who I knew became a memory and the city appeared like a totally new brand place. How blessed I am to find shiny new elements in the city who come to make me believe that Mumbai takes away a lot but always gives you back something memorable in return. Fortunately having gained new pillars in the city, the place seems different, more encouraging, worthy and livelier than ever ! The thing to remember is that you get what you are worth, and I think I deserve better which I will get.

Reflecting back to last year, one of the toughest years till date - UK has been one of the best teachers, it gave me lot of love with a pinch of salt. When you let go of things and people, you loose a part of yourself that you had given them, but you definitely gain a new space inside you to welcome better things that you are worth of. It happened to me and it ll happen to you as well. 

P.S. - The only thing that heals best is Time ! : ) 

Cheers,
K
