Life Moves Around In Circles

Its been sometime since I last wrote.. My lethargy has rusted my writing skills so I decided to finally key it in..

The trip to Europe was fantastic to say the least sans an incident when I ate Salami in ignorance! I visited Amstedam, Volendam, Rotterdam, Brno, Pardubice, Prague and a few other cities in Czech. While the whole of Czech was eagerly waiting for Spring, I enjoyed the last bit of winter, snow, and rain that the weather Gods had to offer - anyone would if they came from 30-35 degree celcius!

The three days of exhibition were more than hectic, and good food was a luxury that I never had. It was only in Prague that I found an Indian Restaurant, where my mind was hungrier than my stomach and I did justice to both. :) The Prague Castle and the Charles Brigde were very beautiful indeed. Travelling through the country was another great experience.

The last month has been really challenging and things have attacked me from all ends. Unfortunately, I have not been the Gladiator, but I know I will come out strong and there is light at the end of the tunnel. At this moment though, I really wish I could laze around under the shade of a tree in a garden or park and listen to the birds chirp, or lie on a beach listening to the waves, or perhaps on top of a mountain and listen to the wind.. Yes, they all speak a strange language that reminds one of what life should actually be..

There was a very beautiful line in the play "Crab" I saw a couple of years back.. It said "While you are walking relentlessly in a straight line, life moves around in circles"..

Cheers..
