The mornings wont be so easy. the nights wont be so calm. the roads will be crowded, potholed , waiting to kill you as soon as u slip. See thats y its great. U r awake and aware all the time. Zombies find it hard to live there.
People will trample you if u loose ur mind for a minute.
We r going to be gone from here in about a month. I am thinking i should make a list of what i will miss here. The closeness to the beautiful nature is going to numero uno. I will miss my early morning runs. 1 km n am at the world's best bay. the milky waves, pretty hills. I can see the flights take off . the fresh air and heaps of green. The run to the red rocks and view of south island across cook strait. I can cry hopelessly for an hour just for that 1 route. The oriental bay. my home run! how much will i miss it i have no idea but its going to be a huge one i know for sure. the beaches and seagulls a mere 4 min drive away. why oh why am i leaving it and going away?? i think i am a fool already! the park and field in front of our house is next. there is a huge patch of green park well maintained n slopey (almost like the ones in hindi movies where hero n heroine roll over ) leading to the golf course. its so calming n refreshing. on the other side is a biggg play ground. hardly ever used because there is another bigggg playground with artificial turf right next to it. the field is where khushi has had most of her meals. n we have had some of our best times with her laughing there.
Are these 2 reasons not big enough for the comfort of day to day life?
We r moving back to India. Our desha, where we belong or so i have argued a million times and over in the last 6 odd months.It is a lot of hard work. We r currently sorting out "our belongings". Its surprisingly exhausting.
There r big piles of things, sell, throw, take back. I am taking back with me what i cannot live without.
we r selling things we think r keepable but not worthy enough to be transported over.
To Throw. how do u throw what u paid for n assumed was worth . detachment is soo difficult. Its soo very difficult to let go of things u r used to using. Where is my yoga hat?

Hey deeps even i am wondering why you are leaving this all behind. Maybe you would appreciate all that more once you are back home. But again to rationalize there are people who matter to you back in India. Difficult but a big decision. Hats off to you lady. You amaze me with the bold decisions that you take
