Even after
taking citizenship of another country I remain Indian. I got myself an OCI
status for ease of travel back to the earth I am most accustomed to, and yet-
The bond
only deepens each day.
It is a
bubbling over in the heart
It pervades
and takes me over
Every cell
rings with it
What is it,
oh what is it that I feel?
Words fall
short, that is their nature.
I had to let
go twice to live overseas. Letting go- my achilles heel. I know that all it
takes is to sink into the ‘right now’ and I do. The umbilical cord never really
severs, does it? All the time, right inside is a soft and insistent tug.
My daughter has remarked that she has never heard anyone else talk about India as much as I do :) I have no idea if this was a compliment or not but I take most things at face value to keep life simple.
I live a fairly busy life but like to think I have struck a balance between work and leisure. Now leisure to me is anything in which I am totally immersed- singing, writing while listening to music, ( generally to old hindi songs on Radio Purani Jeans), being walked by my dog etc. Work is cooking/cleaning/all paid work.
I also take Ms.G for her various sports/music/dance classes and go to social events of the spiritual/entertaining kind.
Despite this some part of me hovers in and around India all the time. Strange phenomenon this. I live here and also exist elsewhere.
Reminds me of Hariharan's gazal- Main khayaal hoon kisi aur ka mujhe sochta koi aur hai :)

I just read your interesting post. I have an honest question. This is not a facetious question. If there is a war broke out between the country you are now citizen of and India, who will you support?
Good news this is to everyone out there with different health challenges, as I know there are still a lot of people suffering from different health issues and are therefore looking for solutions. I bring you Good news. There is a man called Dr Itua herbal practitioner who helped cure me from HSV (2). I have suffered from this disease for the past 5 years and I have spent so much money trying to survive from it. I got my healing by taking the herbal medicine Dr Itua sent to me to drink for about 14 days . 3 days after completion of the dosage, I went for a medical checkup and I was tested free from HSV. All thanks to God for leading me to Dr Itua who was able to cure me completely from this deadly disease. I’m sharing this so that other people can know of this great healer called Dr Itua because I got to know him through Elizabeth who he cured from HPV .
