Settling Down Again far away from Home…

This is my first scribble so please read at your own risk ……………

The time has come in my life to move into a new phase of life ….. I like to call it the 8 –5 phase ie. job days

When I had left Pune 2 years ago I was scared that was I or was I not going to settle down in a new land in kallu land in Detroit but then along came Helen Deroy apartments my home away from home.

I will never ever forget those days…… the fall of 2005 the first days those aimless walks on campus those discussions with koya near macd’s those sarkars in 406, by hearting those dialogs from swades. I was worried then what will become of me.

But I survived managed stayed fought. Did everything that I thought was to be done….. Today sitting in Chicago I think I have the same feelings going through me have I lost all that I earned in two years………… Will I ever get those fun filled days those friends and their company.

Those evenings rather nights of playing monopoly those 3 am visits to wallmart those starbucks coffees those chats those trips……………

Here in Chicago having left what came to be near and dear to me …….. I have my own little reservations as to where life is taking me the uncertainty that a contract position brings with you and also the feeling that may be that you could have made a difference to someone if you had not left Detroit for good.

The unopened bags infront of you tell you a whole different story……….. lazy ass put things in place

Feels different maybe cause I till date never had the privilege of having a whole room to myself may be @ good old pune or deroy 901 /610 where we were 5 guys minimum in a 2 bed………….. it feels different not bad mind u but different

Got to start all over again make new friends…………. No I aint saying I am going to leave my trusted ones but still…………..

Lets see as they say let time do the talking
