The return

return of the native is what comes to my mind .Coming home after being away for so long with the decision that this is going to our final destination is both exciting and anxious.Relaocating to a new place, a new routine ,infact a new life takes time.But I have been enjoying every moment of it.I have decided to have an open mind with no prejudices and not jump to judgements too soon.Setting up a new home , for me who has always been disturbed by change of any kind is not an easy task.The warmth of the people, the coolness of the trees, the incessant rains ever since we arrived have all been welcoming.Not to forget the noise of the traffic though.Nothing is unexpected though.

Anand

What is Anand?Pure joy.At different times different things cause anand.

What for me is anand?
Swimming.The sheer joy of swimming.Feeling light and moving freely in water!For a long time I have been wanting to learn swimming .Now that I have, not that I am a great swimmer, I just can manage one stroke ,breathing and all.And what an achievement it is.The very thought of buoyantly moving in water, feeling so light and moving all your limbs freely is so joyful.Let go is the key to swimming.and it took a long time for me to master that in water, am still learning it.
Infact I think the key to living joyfully is Letgo.
