Autonomy

im back in the motherland.

i spent a couple of days in bombay with John and Sriki, and it was perfect. Pune has been nice so far, no exertion, no tension. Tomorrow, i head to calcutta. i look forward to it.

and then back here.
i feel good to be with my three. its calm, while there is predictability, the gaps we leave in between provide a little torridity.
john and i proved the 75% rock-paper-scissor theory.
it states that people who are familiar with each other will tie 75% of the game. john and i got four out of five.

i think the point is, im not a peoples person, im not good with small talk, not good with meeting new people. but with these three, somehow i fall into comfy little, safe pockets of security and contentment. im more easy than not, less defensive and somehow so much more tolerant. i adore them. and im so certain of the hands that will catch me and the mouths that will laugh with or at me. my friends are A for Awesome. really.

i leave for the air port in about an hour an a half, i have a suitcase to pack and i would definitely need a shower.

the dusty pune air, its autumn approaching. the smells of pune are smells of seasons.
it was a beautiful time growing up in this city.
but like i told V, the best years are still ahead.

its always good to have something to fight for.
we're all twisted enough to end up enjoying the struggle.

I'm in Pune too! Yes.. it's the awesomest place to be in. This is what I tell Bombayites who think traveling to Pune every weekend is such a task!
