My Little Star

My dearmost Sahil. The Child who is very well-behaved for his age. Not much fussy, clean. :-)) Yet Playful and Daring like all other kids. His courage in Darkness and spirit of being fearless inspires me. He is observant and catches all the tiny details you may miss. Most loved is his unique style of repeating his parents actions or words - something that etches itself in the memory!

Dew Drops from Another World

Its strange, how you can suddenly feel removed from all that you held so close, by just moving physically away! Being miles away, of course emotional strain would find a place for itself. Stranger as it may seem, the new life has made everything until now, look like a story. I have this funny feeling that like a leaf, I have flown away with the wind and though I know I would be back near the roots where I belong... the feeling is very different from anything experienced so far.

Everything that I am noticing around me, having so much more time now just for myself as well... I am kind of feeling lost. :-( I don't feel out of place and that's good (so far) but then, why is there so much of a longing to just get where I was before this? Comfort? I don't know if Comfort is the right word. Familiarity? No. Togetherness? :-) Maybe.

More in the next post...there is so much to jot down. Most of it, I have already sent across back home, still, there is so much to savour in, just for myself. Its good that my son is taking it all in his stride (in a way, better than I am able to). This comfort shall help me survive! :-))

So, that said to myself, while I am here, am trying to make the most of it. New Place, New People, New Things, New Experiences, New Learnings. So far, nothing bad. Missing my father the most, coz I know what this would have meant to him. Seeing kids soar, does wonders to the parent's spirit, doesn't it? :-(

The thought that I had while on the plane - am closer to the clouds than ever before! When life has so much to give, why put in so much of thought? Go on Girl, the Journey will teach its lessons on the way.
