A romantic inclination towards someone - a hardcore one that is - makes you do possibly everything under the sun and you would even travel miles to start a new life or whatever. Well, GVM movies portray a guy flying to USA, but in real life, may be, from Trivandrum to Cochin can work. You would have a lot of hope, dreams and expectations until you are stuck with the reality - that reality though hard to accept would change your world upside down after the encounter. That's exactly what happened to me or may be something close to all that!
A series of unexpected events through out an year and a half, had left me fall for this city more than I always did.
Apart from the usual making new friends, visiting new places, learning new things, the overall experience changed me bit by bit, which I still can't figure out whether it was for good or bad. Travelling alone, dealing with life alone, making friends and then their part in my life and my part in their life, heart breaks, night outs, second shows, long drives and rides, parties and after parties, birthdays and weddings, there were a lot to celebrate, or may be not. But the whole point is, we celebrated life :)
Falling in love with the same old person all over again, waste of time realisation, a newly found love which turned out to be quite another tragedy - that comprises the romantic side. Or in short, there was no romance at all, which is surprisingly not a new thing.
And what did I learn from life - a lot, again! The overall perspective about life changed over night literally. What we think is good may be bad to someone else, and right - wrong! There's in fact no good or bad, no right or wrong, no this or that. It's an individual's choice on how to live his/her life until he/she is hurting someone else. I think that's the most important thing I learnt and I would want to live by it through out.
The best part was indeed some amazing people I met who just made the roller coaster ride an easy one and worth the effort :-) not gonna name anyone as it's very cliche throughout my blog, nor am I gonna diplomatically say 'everyone was equally important'. There were indeed some for who I even vouch my life, and I guess they all know that I mean it when I say this.
As the bizarre life comes to an end, I just have nothing but a lot of memories to carry along with me all through me life. No sorrys or thank yous because they are done and dealt with. Each day was a new experience and a new lesson, and that was the beauty.
PS: Kahawa, Pai brothers and Ming's wok will be terribly missed more than anything or anyone. :'(
