The "maya nagri" of India. Where anyone can make something of themselves. The city that never sleeps...and much more has been said and 'over' said about it. To me...it was a place i found myself. Again.
How many times have we stumbled and fallen on our face, bruised our ego, crushed our soul and moved on? Just brushed our knees and cleared our eyes.
Its the Bad, the Worse, the Ugly...there's probably NO good in the city but its brings out the best in us. Maybe that's why the affection.
April 19Th...a day before My Favourite day. It ALL began..the whirlwind, the turmoil..inside me and outside. The chaos, the uncertainty, the struggle, the confusion, the unknowing-ness, the newness, the joy, the grief, the heat...and the sweat!! *eek*
From struggling to get onto the Local to the Joy of getting off it...the many moods in an hour. The freezing temperatures inside and the sweltering heat outside...met in the middle at the pantry..."bhaiya do toast aur ek black tea"...hunt for JimJams and then the Mc Vities!
The wait to get done...walk to our "local" watering hole...Thanking God was never so much fun:p
The internal turmoil kept creeping up...built itself into a devil..a monster to eat me up..Shit said me..No said the city. Hold yourself...I wont wait for you. There's a world to be discovered, to be touched, to be felt, to be understood. And just like a phoenix it all burned out...and a new me was born. Self Discovery was never so much fun.
Maximum City Indeed. (:
