Back to writing

 

The feeling of emptiness that comes by living alone in a home is very hard to digest. Although the days where you were lonely are gone now with the technological intervention.

Today we had dinner together  with my family. As my wife and me engaged ourselves on whatsapp call. We spoke on video call for 40 minutes wherein I could see my family having dinner as I had my dinner. Certain things were observed like my younger one had splashed pomegranate on his forehead, claiming its blood. I asked what happened to him on the forehead and came to know the backstory. Both children had hair cut yday, which I appreciated seeing them on the video call.

Although I felt unhappy sometimes while in India that the whatsapp and phones are such a problem, today the benefits of the whatsapp call could be experienced by me from last 4 days as I indulge with my family over the whatsapp video call. They are able to get a clear picture of my home here in Uganda and also how the different things are shaped.

I made a full length 1.40 mins video, which I shared to family members group so that they could appreciate my home here in Uganda and understand I am safe and comfortable in a place away from city, state, country and continent.

While I never have thought writing seriously or ever to write a book, certain friends have such expectations from me. I have been very successful in my past to fulfil many an expectations that get created around me.  These thoughts have led to think:

Am I a stranger to my own energy?

or am I giving up to my lethargy

When I command there is synergy

Don’t know, I am so crazy.

Wishes and happiness that I think

In sleep I dream and wink

These thoughts sometimes get me a link

That I can succeed writing without a blink

 

So let me create a new endeavor

Will be behind it like a creature

Habit of writing let me a feature

It may create great future.

 

Jai Shri Ram.
