Going Home


Here I am...after a long break..Work has been hectic..very hectic. It has sapped away all my energy and left me exhausted...So I managed to convince myself to take a break and went on a little vacation... to my hometown in Kerala (India).
I went to all these beaches and just whiled away my time doing nothing... gorged on the food prepared by mom...celebrated our new year (called Vishu) with my family. Had an amazing time in all. But the difficult part was letting it all go and come back to a city thats overcrowded knowing that you will be very soon lost in this crowd... but one has to, we are all part of the rat race called life.....
It was so amazing...home is a wonderful place to be. All the wonderful and luxurious amenities of a five star hotel cannot replace the warmth of a home. Someone said it well when he/she said "house is made of bricks and stones, home is made of love alone".
All that one has is memories...Right now I am holding to them tight...very tight
