O nadan parinde ghar ajja…I hear this song from Rockstar and it makes me ponder over what it means to be “At Home”
We had been like nomads wandering across lot of states within India, changing houses, changing friends, changing schools and I realize how much did I lost in terms of having a deep rooted relationship with some school friends. Growing up together would have been so much fun, but nevertheless it also helped me develop a quality of being adjusted to every new surroundings and exploring the new opportunities coming my way.
But as of now, I am going through a very different feeling. It’s the feeling of achievement, satisfaction and completion. I have my own flat and that’s why I had been running around helter scelter to make my new flat look as Home. Not that it’s in a very posh area, neither it’s too great, but what makes it special is that it belongs to me.
It’s a sense of achievement as when I am entering that place for which a heavy chunk is deducted every month from my hard earned money. There was a great sense of satisfaction when I was mopping the floor, as if I was actually taking a complete feel of my triumph. This actually goes as a beautiful gift to my creators who have developed me to reach so far. They mean everything to me and what a child can feel when he becomes capable of giving a shelter to his parents. It’s just a feeling of completion.
But honestly speaking I already know that even though this place belongs to me but I belong to somewhere else. My actual home is still waiting for me to explore and give my best of whatever I have and learn to develop more skills to make it the most beautiful home ever…My home!
It’s time for the next cycle to start, a new beginning, a new life to be discovered. I believe I am ready.
Anticipating that this year will offer me an opportunity to be in my REAL home. :)
Welcome 2012, Welcome HOME!
O nadan parinde ghar ajja….
