Good Fortune

There are times when you just look up at the sky, and thank God with your arms wide open, for giving you enough sense to not pursue something that you were totally crazy about, which if you had, would have been devastating for you.

PS: visited India and had the best time of my life(in a long long time) for 46 whole days(Nov 24-Jan 8). it's official - i hate to be back here.

Seven Fours are...

...the number is getting bigger by the year.

Life is tough...

I moved into a new apartment recently with a guy...well, man...who sent his wife and kid back to India, just before i moved in, so that his kid can join a school there, because education was costly in the United States. The kid is four years old. I did not quite know how to react when, a couple of nights ago, he started talking about all the hardships he was facing in life, about the tough decision of whether to stay here or go back, etc.. All i could think of was about the millions below the poverty line, struggling for their next day's meal. He earns in dollars and i guess that's saying enough for a corporate Indian in USA, more often than not.

I just hope that I won't live to see a day when i'd acknowledge the seriousness of what he was talking about...
