Anchor...Raising the sails...

Another Saturday is almost seeing itself off without leaving any solid memoirs to cherish apart from this movie that leaves a bit of vacuum - Swades. It is amazing how I have not realised the way near to 4 decades has gone past me and taking me through various phases of life and anchored me (I take it as an anchor for now!!!) here in Auckland New Zealand. Never in my wildest imaginations did I think that the day would come when I disconnect myself from my motherland...when I pull my anchor off and raise my sails to set off... Even when those numerous negations that stare straight on to my eyes...corruption, pollution, population, inflation...yes I could just go on and on and on, I still miss the freshness, the monsoon, my friends, my relatives, the coconut palms, beautiful rainforest, beaches, backwaters...mom, dad, brother, Smitha(my wife)'s mom, brother & family...
Maybe it is just another few more years here after which I would pull this anchor off. Once set up and the cogs of the wheels starts self managing, once the economic freedom is realised, once the priority is defined, once the confidence gets solidified, once the net worth is not revisited time and again, I could just raise the sails again, pull the anchor off!!! I miss my people, I miss Trivandrum. I miss Kerala - the Gods' own country!!!
