I have awakened from my beauty sleep





A vacation is what you need when you just want to feel that pampered again. A vacation reminds you of the lovely kindergarten days when you can just lie about and do nothing, and it seems you're doing so many things...AAh never mind. Life is just that I guess. When it comes to vacation. But the brain isn't resting. It is more like restless. Forever wanting to dive in and out of things...wanting to find a way of how to make bloody good money, or just scheming a way to be happy 20 years from now. You get what I mean. This vacation was a lot of that. It was about letting yourself free. See I am not the abstract one, I will tell it like it is. But I will evade what I am trying to say to you and you'll probably just get it.

Calcutta is where I was. It was wonderful.Friends, Family and so on and so forth. Wow. Why haven't I travelled before. i need to find some travel buddies. Lol.Travelling is just so much fun. I need to have read Jerome K Jerome before left that would make me less schizophrenic...ha ha.

Even as I sit back and ponder, and write a few reviews which I have seen, it seems like I love to be enveloped in a thick sweater of comfort. Never wanting to get out of this cocoon. happy the way I am. Just the way things are.But really is this how I want to be?

Sure.

:D


A cold morning, which felt as a breeze
A clothing line, overlooking a tram line
The future seemed bleak with a strike in preparation
Words and conversations
interrupted with welcoming food
Sumptuous and home cooked
love and care
A tinge of excitement
Lucid and soft feet
wondering in the streets
A journey that became a loving ride
Memorials and Paintings
Taking you to an era gone by
Splendid city, marvels you
The prayers of a distant shore haunt you
The sight of the goddess entices
as her world in which you try and rejoice
The journey carefully treads on mystic verses
With happiness you smile as you close your eyes
Taking it all in, Now or Never
The Smell of Calcutta will linger forever
