One fine day I get up from my sleep only to realize that I have woken up in another world.I can work play, shop, make friends, go out with them, travel and do all such things that makes life interesting for me but wait.. there is a catch.
I don’t know a soul in that world.
Will I be able to live there without my family, friends, people I love, those I hate and of course those I’d love to hate. Can I cut all ties with my current life and start a fresh?
A few days before I would have given you a meditative look and said "but what’s life without these guys'?
Come on, I need to get angry with my maid for coming late, I have to scowl at my neighbor who thinks our corridor is a chimney! Imagine not giving the lift man that disgusting look when he digs his nose while he calls for the lift and wait a min.. No fighting with your partner for the remote? Forget it!
That was few days back though. So what’s different now,you ask?
Well, i have been home alone and i have to admit i am loving it ... and so is my Television i bet! One more week before we get back to stressing it again :)
Also my maid comes on time these days and the lift attendant has changed! …the neighbor’s still a bum though!

Preeti!! Gud one!! enjoyed it
good observations! i generally believe that people always tend to crave for what they dont have. when you have people around, you look for some meditative time alone.and when you meditate enough, you realise that its not as much fun forever... its a cycle, so enjoy it while it lasts. before you know it, the liftman will change again, and you might get into those fights for the remote once more! and maybe you will actually start enjoying them now that you have crossed over to the other side, atleast temporarily :)
Fathak - Glad u liked it,thanks!
Madhu - Hmmm.. ya hope so too coz dont have much of a choice do i? ;)
Yeah.. one kind of gets the "Ammadi" feeling once the last person leaves home... then trust me...all the forbidden things blossoms into reality.. be it a remote control under your control or whatever!!! But sooner or later, we do get hit by the better half syndrome.
Good blog though!! Keep it rolling!!
In the temporary state the "Robinson Crusoe" is fine...but existing without the attatched and the known..for long...is tough.We need our anchors all the time...co-existence is as necessary as oxygen..!
