Pending Post

Its been one month and 25 days that ive come back from home, India it is! Mind was flooding with too many thoughts to put down so far. Now I guess im back on 'track', back to the regular grind pretty much!! Again the same routine, same loneliness and same unknown faces around. Gosh! how long am I going to take to actually relate to this place?? It seems like a long long trip away from home, want to finish my task here as soon as possible. But I dont even know whether I would want to go back or not. Home refers to any place in India actually. It's been 7 long years I've been staying away from my "home". Sometimes I feel tired of taking care of myself, being responsible for everything I do. I just want to keep an assistant to do all the stupid tasks I hate, like managing my bank account, doing taxes, doing laundry and the worst is taking care of myself when I fall sick (at all). For this one reason, I am very particular about my health, I just indulge in self pity when I have to do this, and thats the worst thing I can do to myself. But there is another side to this. I am so used to this freedom that sometimes I wonder if I would be able to live in a family ever again. Life is like a free bird, go anywhere anytime, earn ur own living and live ur own life!! Except for the recent financial independence part, life has been pretty much like this for past 7 years. Fun is mine, so is the pain, things that used to disturb don't seem to bother much now. I can see the naivety disappearing somewhere. (refer to the poem "Lost Innocence" below). May be this is what they call as 'growing up'!
