Finally, after all the turbulence and the mini heart attacks you get when the plan plunges downward, I landed home, I landed in India. It's funny how this country holds so much value to me in such a short time. Maybe its the warm people or the atmosphere but... there is some magic which compels me to come back every single time.
As I wait for a cab which is taking longer than usual to arrive, I realize the festive atmosphere, it's Diwali. Everyone is in their own little bubble of joy. For me, I fall into thought. How is my first Diwali in India going to be like? Is it going to be really cordial like in Singapore or something different? I made through the scary bumpy flight and I made it unscathed through some... problems which transpired in Singapore. Emerging confident, I look forward to Diwali and also look forward to seeing some people I love.
It's like life is giving me a fresh start. Something which tells me, you can build your life all over again. This time, it is going to be easier than the last. This time maybe, there won't be so many disappointments. Maybe, this is where I am meant to be happy. This is my home now, this is my country. Sure, I am going to miss everything that Singapore had to offer me, but, as India spread out it's hands to embrace me, I found it easy to forget my tangled past. The cab arrived. I took a deep breath and stepped into tha cab, this is the start of my journey here. This is my first step.
In conclusion, this Diwali, there are going to be some major changes coming and good or bad, I am ready for them :] Happy Diwali everyone!
