In a couple of weeks, I will be packing my bags and leaving Germany forever. I have almost reached the end of my Europe expedition...
I have learned a lot during my last 8 months stay here, thanks to the loneliness, without which I wouldn’t have went out and explored a life outside us!
Well it turned out that the more places you go, the more people you meet, the more humble you become...once you realize all the variety of stuff that exist you'll realize your worth ...that you are just a small human being in this whole pool of energy and life. And at some stage you stop taking things, which you are used to, for granted.
I never realized the worth of India until I came abroad. I started exploring more about the places in India and its culture after coming over to Europe. I love Germany and I love India ...both in its own ways....
Many people find me stupid when I turned down my offer for extended stay in Europe. Well i don’t know if its the familiarity or concept of home-country that has pulled me towards India from such an organized and established country. I am sure if I live here my life would be entirely different and groomed in a more refined way. But somehow i don’t want to!
I wondered if its my love that’s pulling me towards home...and the last few months I realized it was just one among the many reasons...
As the days draw close I am a little sad to give up my cozy and free life over here and go back to the intolerable social-chains and leading the mundane life within the cultural restrictions…where you have to think twice, or may be more, before acting…about how the society will view each and every one of your actions…and the un-necessary efforts you have to put for the way you chose to live YOUR Life… trying hard to provide justification for each and every one of your actions...making sacrifices just to get along in the society…the one thing I am gonna miss the most for the rest of my life- freedom of living!
But meanwhile my excitement in getting back home and having nice food and being with the ones I love, is so high that it overshadows the slight 'missing' feeling of comfort and freedom!
Lets hope for the best:-)
